A sample of 34 healthy participants was recruited and performed two tasks, Raven's Advanced Progressive Matrices (RAPM) intelligence assessment and learning task. Electroencephalography (EEG) signals were recorded during resting state (eyes open) and in learning task. In the learning task, participants study animated contents about human anatomy and physiology for 10 minutes. In the EEG spectral analysis, all six frequency bands showed higher mean power during learning task compared to resting state in the frontal lobe, especially in FP2 and F8 locations. High EEG activity in frontal sites reflects high attention demand and working memory resources for studying the complex science concepts. There is also high connectivity between fronto-temporo-parietal regions indicate that an increase connection network for new memory encoding and it is critical for learning and memory. © 2016 IEEE. date: 2017 publisher: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85011992400&doi=10.1109%2fICIAS.2016.7824051&partnerID=40&md5=ba960d218b2d72f1c3db803e15c902c6 id_number: 10.1109/ICIAS.2016.7824051 full_text_status: none publication: International Conference on Intelligent and Advanced Systems, ICIAS 2016 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781509008452 citation: Tyng, C.M. and Amin, H.U. and Malik, A.S. and Saad, M.N.M.
