| Abstract: | The present study examined whether Tai Chi exercise had treatment effects
for major depression using objective measures. We used mismatch negativity (MMN) and
early negative difference (Nde), one of event-related potentials (ERPs) as objective
measures. We administered 24-style Tai Chi exercise twice a week during 3 months to a
patient with major depression. Consequently, not only depressive symptoms but also
small MMN and Nde amplitudes improved accompanying 24-style Tai Chi exercise.
Therefore, Tai Chi could be recommended as a mental training method to ameliorate
cognitive function, especially attention function. |
