Beyond the status quo: a role for beta oscillations in endogenous content (re) activation
Among the rhythms of the brain, oscillations in the beta frequency range (∼ 13–30 Hz) have
been considered the most enigmatic. Traditionally associated with sensorimotor functions …

“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 oscillations serve to protect working memory maintenance against anticipated distracters
M Bonnefond, O Jensen - Current biology, 2012 - cell.com
When operating in a complex world, it is essential to have mechanisms that can suppress
distracting information [1, 2]. Such mechanisms might be related to neuronal oscillations …

[HTML][HTML] Alpha oscillations related to anticipatory attention follow temporal expectations
Temporal expectations have been shown to enhance visual analysis of task-relevant events,
especially when these are coupled with spatial expectations. Oscillatory brain activity …

Orienting attention to an upcoming tactile event involves a spatially and temporally specific modulation of sensorimotor alpha-and beta-band oscillations
Our perception is facilitated if we know where and when a sensory stimulus will occur. This
phenomenon is accounted for by spatial and temporal orienting of attention. Whereas spatial …

Attention modulates the gating of primary somatosensory oscillations
Sensory gating (SG) is a well-studied phenomenon in which neural responses are reduced
to identical stimuli presented in succession, and is thought to represent the functional …

Prediction errors but not sharpened signals simulate multivoxel fMRI patterns during speech perception
Successful perception depends on combining sensory input with prior knowledge. However,
the underlying mechanism by which these two sources of information are combined is …

Somatosensory anticipatory alpha activity increases to suppress distracting input
S Haegens, L Luther, O Jensen - Journal of cognitive neuroscience, 2012 - direct.mit.edu
Effective processing of sensory input in daily life requires attentional selection and
amplification of relevant input and, just as importantly, attenuation of irrelevant information. It …
