    Although it's easy to "create" pseudo-science with EEG data, the presence of EEG by itself does not mean straight pseudo-science. It can be used correctly, and it's actively used in the medical field to detect brain diseases, for example.

    *That said, I'm not saying the study here is to be believed, I have not read it, just commenting on EEG
