Abstract

Globally, students demonstrate considerable heterogeneity in academic performance even under similar conditions. While previous systematic reviews have provided a more comprehensive picture of the relationship between different factors and academic performance, none have investigated its relationship with brain activity. Previous evidence supports that the P3, a positive deflection in the electroencephalogram reflecting higher order cognitive processes, may serve as a neuromarker for academic performance. The primary objective of this systematic review was to synthesize existing research on the P3 and academic performance in healthy adults. Searches were conducted using Web of Science, ProQuest, and Scopus databases. In total, four studies met the eligibility criteria for inclusion in the present review. Results suggest that P3 latency can serve as a reliable neuromarker for academic performance in healthy adults. However, limited previous studies and methodological differences prevent strong conclusions from being drawn. Further research is needed to establish the predictive capability of the P3 on academic performance. This paper represents the first systematic review on this topic, illuminating our understanding of the relationship between brain activity and academic performance.

健康成年人的 P3 和学习成绩：系统回顾与荟萃分析

在全球范围内，即使在相似的条件下，学生们的学习成绩也表现出相当大的差异。以往的系统性综述对不同因素与学习成绩之间的关系进行了更全面的描述，但没有一项综述调查了学习成绩与大脑活动之间的关系。以往的证据表明，脑电图中反映高阶认知过程的正偏转 P3 可作为学习成绩的神经标记。本系统性综述的主要目的是综合现有关于 P3 和健康成年人学习成绩的研究。我们使用 Web of Science、ProQuest 和 Scopus 数据库进行了检索。共有四项研究符合纳入本综述的资格标准。结果表明，P3潜伏期可以作为健康成年人学习成绩的可靠神经标记。然而，由于之前的研究有限以及方法上的差异，无法得出有力的结论。要确定 P3 对学习成绩的预测能力，还需要进一步的研究。本文是有关这一主题的第一篇系统性综述，有助于我们了解大脑活动与学习成绩之间的关系。
