Academic burnout in higher education: a multimodal study of resting-state EEG microstate correlates beyond trait anxiety, depressive symptoms, and self-efficacy in Chinese undergraduates
BackgroundAcademic burnout is a mental-health-relevant outcome of higher-education stress, but its relationship with spontaneous brain dynamics remains unclear. EEG microstates are quasi-stable scalp-potential configurations indexing millisecond-level transitions between large-scale resting brain states. This study tested whether resting-state EEG microstate dynamics…
