Towards an Objectivation of the Therapeutic Effect of a Rocking Movement (BAL-EASE)

September 4, 2020 updated by: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Besancon

Objectivating the Therapeutic Effect of a Rocking Movement by High Density Electroencephalography

The study evaluates the benefits of a rocking movement on well-being and attention, through high-density electroencephalography recordings. The effect of the rocking movement is compared to a seated position and a lying position.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: Rocking movement
Participant is lying in a hammock with a rocking motion. Cerebral measurements from high-density electroencephalography while standard and deviant sounds are presented to the participant.
Cerebral measurements from high-density electroencephalography while standard and deviant sounds are presented to the participant.
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Lying position
Participant is lying in a hammock with no rocking motion. Cerebral measurements from high-density electroencephalography while standard and deviant sounds are presented to the participant.
Cerebral measurements from high-density electroencephalography while standard and deviant sounds are presented to the participant.
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Seated position
Participant is sitting on a chair. Cerebral measurements from high-density electroencephalography while standard and deviant sounds are presented to the participant.
