Functional EEG montage for cognitive skill development

A headset comprising:

• (i) a front portion comprising a first end, a second end, a sensing bar, and a locator bar, wherein the sensing bar and the locator bar are joined at the first end and the second end of the front portion and comprising a space below the sensing bar and above the locator bar between the first end and the second end, and wherein:
• (a) the sensing bar is shaped and configured to contact the forehead of a user wearing the headset and comprises a first electrical sensor positioned to contact the forehead of the user at about position AF3, the first electrical sensor comprising one or more electrodes, and a second electrical sensor positioned to contact the forehead of the user at about position AF4, the second electrical sensor comprising one or more electrodes, and
• (b) the locator bar is shaped and configured to rest upon the brow of the user to aid the user in positioning the first electrical sensor at about position AF3 and position the second electrical sensor at about position AF4;
• and
• (ii) a first side portion and a second side portion, the first side portion joined to the first end of the front portion and the second side portion joined to the second end of the front portion, wherein the first side portion, the second side portion, and the front portion, together, are shaped and configured to grip the head of the user, and
• wherein the first side portion is rotatably coupled to the first end of the front portion and the second side portion is rotatably coupled to the second end of the front portion to permit the first side portion and the second side portion to fold inward and reduce the size of the headset when not in use.
