The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between preferred speed and the resting frontal EEG asymmetry of alpha-1 (8-l0Hz) and alpha-2 (10-13Hz), P300 amplitude and latency, as well as mood states (liveliness, well being, and concentration). The task consisted of a continuous forearm rotational movement, which 18 female subjects performed. The frontal EEG asymmetry of alpha-1 had a significant positive correlation with self-selected preferred speed (r=0.5, p< .05). This result suggests that frontal neural activity may have an influence on the selection of preferred speed, while greater relative left frontal activation is associated with the selection of faster speed.
