- •
Psychomotor alterations are core symptoms of major depressive disorder (MDD).
- •
We assessed psychomotor disturbances with the use of actigraphy.
- •
After recording a resting EEG we calculated alpha power and frontal alpha asymmetry.
- •
MDD patients had lower motor activity and left lateralized frontal alpha activity.
- •
Motor activity correlated with alpha power and frontal alpha asymmetry scores.
