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 …

New vistas for α-frequency band oscillations

S Palva, JM Palva - Trends in neurosciences, 2007 - cell.com
The amplitude of α-frequency band (8–14Hz) activity in the human electroencephalogram is

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 …

Neuronal synchrony reveals working memory networks and predicts individual memory capacity

JM Palva, S Monto, S Kulashekhar, S Palva - Proceedings of the National …, 2010 - pnas.org

Fronto-parietal EEG coherence in theta and upper alpha reflect central executive functions of working memory

P Sauseng, W Klimesch, M Schabus… - International journal of …, 2005 - Elsevier
For human working memory the neural correlates of the phonological loop and the
