Description

The purpose of this study was to examine the psychophysiological response during learning movement patterns of "the string figures" and "the origami". 10 healthy females were played two tasks; one was the string figure task and the other was the origami task. They exercised the each task to learn the movement pattern by heart (exercising), and after that they repeated them for three minutes (after exercising). Electroencephalogram (EEG), the mood scale for measuring psychological arousal level and hedonic tone, the self-assessment (skillfulness, concentration, and enjoyment) were measured about each performance. The results were as follows. In frontal area, beta activities were increased after exercising in comparison with exercising in both tasks. In central and parietal area, beta activities were increased after exercising in comparison with exercising in the origami task. In self-assessment, the point of "concentration" in the string figure task was higher score than that the origami task, and point of skillfulness and enjoyment after exercising was higher than exercising in both tasks. These results suggested the origami has higher load of the exercise than the string figures, but the string figures needed higher concentration than the origami in exercising and after exercising of movement patterns in fast learning stage, that was one of the characteristics of performing the string figures.
