Clothing pressure alters brain wave activity in the occipital and parietal lobes

Despite the importance of clothing pressure discomfort in the undergarment industry, a reliable unbiased measurement of clothing pressure discomfort has not been well-established. In the present study, we investigate changes in brain wave activity as a potential objective and consistent measuring to...

In the present study, we investigate changes in brain wave activity as a potential objective and consistent measuring tool for clothing pressure discomfort.

We determined that α wave power spectrum significantly increases when the girdle is worn compared to when it is not worn, specifically in the parietal and occipital regions.
