Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Physiological Parameters: EEG (Electroencephalography): To measure brain activity. Respiration Rate: To monitor breathing patterns. PPG (Photoplethysmography): To assess heart rate and blood flow. GSR (Galvanic Skin Response): To measure skin conductance as an indicator of arousal. ECG (Electrocardiography): To record the electrical activity of the heart. Attention Assessment: Auditory Oddball Task: Conducted twice, once before and once after the intervention, to measure immediate changes in attention.Timepoint: 2 (Pre and Post)	—
