The neurophysiological bases of EEG and EEG measurement: A review for the rest of us

AF Jackson, DJ Bolger - Psychophysiology, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
A thorough understanding of the EEG signal and its measurement is necessary to produce
high quality data and to draw accurate conclusions from those data. However, publications …

EEG alpha oscillations: the inhibition–timing hypothesis

W Klimesch, P Sauseng, S Hanslmayr - Brain research reviews, 2007 - Elsevier
The traditional belief is that the event-related alpha response can solely be described in
terms of suppression or event-related desynchronization (ERD). Recent research, however …

A review of theta oscillation and its functional correlates

S Karakaş - International Journal of Psychophysiology, 2020 - Elsevier
Theta is an extensively studied oscillation of the nervous system, but there is only a paucity
of reviews on the subject. A review of specifically the cognitive-affective correlates of the …

The frequency architecture of brain and brain body oscillations: an analysis

W Klimesch - European Journal of Neuroscience, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
Research on brain oscillations has brought up a picture of coupled oscillators. Some of the
most important questions that will be analyzed are, how many frequencies are there, what …

The functional significance of mu rhythms: translating “seeing” and “hearing” into “doing”

JA Pineda - Brain research reviews, 2005 - Elsevier
Existing evidence indicates that mu and other alpha-like rhythms are independent
phenomena because of differences in source generation, sensitivity to sensory events …

Functional role of gamma and theta oscillations in episodic memory

E Nyhus, T Curran - Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 2010 - Elsevier
The primary aim of this review is to examine evidence for a functional role of gamma and
theta oscillations in human episodic memory. It is proposed here that gamma and theta …

Brain oscillatory substrates of visual short-term memory capacity

P Sauseng, W Klimesch, KF Heise, WR Gruber, E Holz… - Current biology, 2009 - cell.com
The amount of information that can be stored in visual short-term memory is strictly limited to
about four items [1]. Therefore, memory capacity relies not only on the successful retention of …

Frontal-midline theta from the perspective of hippocampal “theta”

DJ Mitchell, N McNaughton, D Flanagan, IJ Kirk - Progress in neurobiology, 2008 - Elsevier
Electrical recordings from the surface of the skull have a wide range of rhythmic
components. A major task of analysis of this EEG is to determine their source and functional …

What does phase information of oscillatory brain activity tell us about cognitive processes?

P Sauseng, W Klimesch - Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 2008 - Elsevier
The electroencephalogram (EEG) bears the possibility to investigate oscillatory processes in
the human brain. In the animal brain it has been shown that the phase of cortical oscillations …

EEG alpha synchronization and functional coupling during top‐down processing in a working memory task

P Sauseng, W Klimesch, M Doppelmayr… - Human brain …, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
Abstract Electroencephalogram (EEG) α (around 10 Hz) is the dominant rhythm in the
human brain during conditions of mental inactivity. High amplitudes as observed during rest …
