Brain and autonomic nervous system activity measurement in software engineering: A systematic literature review
Abstract
In the past decade, brain and autonomic nervous system activity measurement received increasing attention in the study of software engineering (SE). This paper presents a systematic literature review (SLR) to survey the existing NeuroSE literature.
Highlights
• First comprehensive review on use of neurophysiological methods in software engineering.
• Investigation of 89 articles and detailed analysis of the 47 completed empirical studies.
• Identification of code comprehension as the most frequently studied NeuroSE topic.
• Increasing trend towards multi-modal measurements of neurophysiological data.
• Identification of the most productive authors in the field of NeuroSE.
