Working memory and neural oscillations: alpha–gamma versus theta–gamma codes for distinct WM information?

F Roux, PJ Uhlhaas - Trends in cognitive sciences, 2014 - cell.com
Neural oscillations at different frequencies have recently been related to a wide range of
basic and higher cognitive processes. One possible role of oscillatory activity is to assure the …

The neural oscillations of speech processing and language comprehension: state of the art and emerging mechanisms

L Meyer - European Journal of Neuroscience, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
Neural oscillations subserve a broad range of functions in speech processing and language
comprehension. On the one hand, speech contains—somewhat—repetitive trains of air …

EEG beta band activity is related to attention and attentional deficits in the visual performance of elderly subjects

M Gola, M Magnuski, I Szumska, A Wróbel - International Journal of …, 2013 - Elsevier
We have previously shown that beta-band EEG activity is related to attentional modulation in
the visual system of cats and humans. In a separate experiment we also observed that some …

Functional roles of alpha-band phase synchronization in local and large-scale cortical networks

S Palva, JM Palva - Frontiers in psychology, 2011 - frontiersin.org
Alpha-frequency band (8–14 Hz) oscillations are among the most salient phenomena in
human electroencephalography (EEG) recordings and yet their functional roles have …

Alpha oscillations correlate with the successful inhibition of unattended stimuli

BF Händel, T Haarmeier, O Jensen - Journal of cognitive …, 2011 - direct.mit.edu
Because the human visual system is continually being bombarded with inputs, it is
necessary to have effective mechanisms for filtering out irrelevant information. This is partly …

“Too Many betas do not Spoil the Broth”: The Role of Beta Brain Oscillations in Language Processing

S Weiss, HM Mueller - Frontiers in psychology, 2012 - frontiersin.org
Over the past 20 years, brain oscillations have proven to be a gateway to the understanding
of cognitive processes. It has been shown that different neurocognitive aspects of language …

Alpha rhythms in audition: cognitive and clinical perspectives

N Weisz, T Hartmann, N Müller, I Lorenz… - Frontiers in …, 2011 - frontiersin.org
Like the visual and the sensorimotor systems, the auditory system exhibits pronounced
alpha-like resting oscillatory activity. Due to the relatively small spatial extent of auditory …

Gamma-band activity in human prefrontal cortex codes for the number of relevant items maintained in working memory

F Roux, M Wibral, HM Mohr, W Singer… - Journal of …, 2012 - Soc Neuroscience
Previous studies in electrophysiology have provided consistent evidence for a relationship
between neural oscillations in different frequency bands and the maintenance of information …

Cortical alpha oscillations as a tool for auditory selective inhibition

A Strauß, M Wöstmann, J Obleser - Frontiers in human neuroscience, 2014 - frontiersin.org
Listening to speech is often demanding because of signal degradations and the presence of
distracting sounds (ie,“noise”). The question how the brain achieves the task of extracting …

Cortical oscillatory activity is critical for working memory as revealed by deficits in early-onset schizophrenia

C Haenschel, RA Bittner, J Waltz… - Journal of …, 2009 - Soc Neuroscience
Impairments in working memory (WM) are a core cognitive deficit in schizophrenia.
Neurophysiological models suggest that deficits during WM maintenance in schizophrenia …
