Generalization of Frontalis Electromyographic Feedback to Adjacent Muscle Groups: A Critical Review
Reviews parametric studies testing the association between frontalis reduction and concomitant EMG decreases in nontargeted muscle groups. The current research supports the contention that biofeedback reinforces discriminative responding to a specific muscle group and not generalized relaxation to adjacent muscle groups
