脑机接口（BCI）系统可以在不移动的情况下进行通信。目前尚不清楚为什么某些BCI方法或参数对某些用户不太有效。本研究通过探索BCI性能、个人偏好和不同受试者因素（如年龄或性别）之间的相关性来阐明BCI人口统计学。结果表明，大多数人，尽管没有事先BCI的经验，可以使用不莱梅SSVEP BCI系统在一个非常嘈杂的领域设置。年轻人和女性受试者的表现往往更好。大多数受试者表示，他们不认为闪烁刺激令人讨厌，并会使用或推荐此BCI系统。这些和其他人口统计分析可以帮助为每个用户确定最佳BCI。
Brain-computer interface (BCI) systems enable communication without movement. It is unclear why some BCI approaches or parameters are less effective with some users. This study elucidates BCI demographics by exploring correlations among BCI performance, personal preferences, and different subject factors such as age or gender. Results showed that most people, despite having no prior BCI experience, could use the Bremen SSVEP BCI system in a very noisy field setting. Performance tended to be better in both young and female subjects. Most subjects stated that they did not consider the flickering stimuli annoying and would use or recommend this BCI system. These and other demographic analyses may help identify the best BCI for each user.
