The term trance means possessed spirit or devil; psychiatrically means hypnotic, catalepsy, or ecstasy. How about the EEG during trance, is that any difference or not.

We examined the EEG of 9 people during trance and the result is that all EEG is in the normal limit, but the EEG of 7 among 9 people there have artifact features. So we assume that trance influences in appearing the artifact features in EEG.

 

 

Key words: trance, EEG, artifact.
