Hyperbrain Features Of Team Mental Models Within A Juggling Paradigm: A Proof Of Concept

To capture the neural schemas underlying the notion of shared and complementary mental models, we examined the functional connectivity patterns and hyperbrain features of a juggling dyad involved in cooperative motor tasks of increasing difficulty. Jugglers' cortical activity was measured using two synchronized 32-channel EEG systems during dyadic juggling performed with 3, 4, 5 and 6 balls. Individual and hyperbrain functional connections were quantified through coherence maps calculated across all electrode pairs in the theta and alpha bands (4-8 Hz and 8-12 Hz). Graph metrics were used to typify the topology and efficiency of the functional networks. The datasets uploaded are the two dataset of both jugglers used for this study.
