MJ Szul, S Papadopoulos, S Alavizadeh… - Progress in …, 2023 - Elsevier
Classical analyses of induced, frequency-specific neural activity typically average band-
limited power over trials. More recently, it has become widely appreciated that in individual …

A role for bottom–up alpha oscillations in temporal integration

G Karvat, AN Landau - Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, 2024 - direct.mit.edu
Neural oscillations in the 8–12 Hz alpha band are thought to represent top–down inhibitory
control and to influence temporal resolution: Individuals with faster peak frequencies …
