The role of alpha oscillations (8–13 Hz) in cognition is intensively investigated. While
intracranial animal recordings demonstrate that alpha oscillations are associated with …

Research on speech processing is often focused on a phenomenon termed “entrainment”,
whereby the cortex shadows rhythmic acoustic information with oscillatory activity …

Understanding spoken language requires transforming ambiguous acoustic streams into a
hierarchy of representations, from phonemes to meaning. It has been suggested that the …

A hallmark of electrophysiological brain activity is its 1/f-like spectrum–power decreases with
increasing frequency. The steepness of this 'roll-off'is approximated by the spectral …

We present both a scientific overview and conceptual positions concerning the challenges
and assets of electrophysiological measurements in the search for the nature and functions …

Recent studies from the field of interoception have highlighted the link between bodily and
neural rhythms during action, perception, and cognition. The mechanisms underlying …

Large, openly available datasets and current analytic tools promise the emergence of
population neuroscience. The considerable diversity in personality traits and behaviour …

Electrophysiological power spectra typically consist of two components: An aperiodic part
usually following an 1/f power law P∝ 1/f β and periodic components appearing as spectral …

The ability to process and respond to external input is critical for adaptive behavior. Why,
then, do neural and behavioral responses vary across repeated presentations of the same …

Whether prestimulus oscillatory brain activity contributes to the generation of post-stimulus-
evoked neural responses has long been debated, but findings remain inconclusive. We first …
