Relation between emotional approach coping and frontal EEG asymmetry. Higher overall EAC scores (displayed on the abscissa) were associated with greater left-sided frontal EEG asymmetry. The ordinate displays the frontal EEG asymmetry scores, which represent residualized right- minus left-sided alpha power at frontal scalp sites, controlling for asymmetry at other scalp regions. Higher frontal EEG asymmetry scores indicate greater left-sided frontal cortical activity, which is indicative of greater trait approach orientation.
