Personality Variables and Alpha Enhancement: A Correlative Study

Abstract
Investigations into possible relationships between EEG and personality traits began in 1935 (Lemere, 1935), and have continued sporadically (Saul et al., 1937; Gottlober, 1938; Lindsley, 1938; Henry and Knott, 1941). More recently there has been a controversial British exchange (Savage, 1964; Fenton and Scotton, 1967; Broadhurst and Glass, 1969; Young et al., 1971).
