Anxious stress compromises cognitive executive performance. This occurs, for instance, in
cognitive performance anxiety (CPA), in which anxiety about one's cognitive performance …

Background Low spontaneous EEG theta/beta ratio (TBR) is associated with greater
executive control. Their role in regulation of attentional bias for stimuli of different threat …

A robust finding is that resting-state frontal theta/beta ratio (TBR), a spontaneous
electroencephalographic (EEG) frequency band parameter, is increased in attention …

Selective attention depends on goal-directed and stimulus-driven modulatory factors, each
relayed by different brain rhythms. Under certain circumstances, stress-related states can …

The prefrontal cortex is a key player in stress response regulation. Electroencephalographic
(EEG) responses, such as a decrease in frontal alpha and an increase in frontal beta power …

Relationships between electroencephalographic (EEG) slow-and fast-wave frequency
bands are considered to be of interest in the study of dispositional affective traits, emotion …

Chronic stress affects brain function, so assessing its hazards is important for mental health.
To overcome the limitations of behavioral data, we combined behavioral and event-related …

The current study investigated the influence of acute psychological stress on selective
attention processes. After an acute stressor or a control condition, 20 participants performed …

Variability in human resting state electroencephalography (EEG) may reflect emotion
regulation processes (for a review, see Knyazev, 2007). For instance, it has been suggested …

Cross-frequency coupling (CFC) between frontal delta (1–4 Hz) and beta (14–30 Hz)
oscillations has been suggested as a candidate neural correlate of social anxiety disorder, a …
