Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of memory load on event-related EEG desynchronization and synchronization
Christina M. Krause,Lauri Sillanmäki,Mika Koivisto,Carina Saarela,Carina Saarela,Anna Häggqvist,Anna Häggqvist,Matti Laine,Heikki Hämäläinen +8 more
TL;DR: The results support the assumption that the simultaneously recorded ERD/ERS responses of different narrow EEG frequency bands differ and reflect distinct aspects of information processing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of electromagnetic field emitted by cellular phones on the EEG during a memory task
Christina M. Krause,Lauri Sillanmäki,Mika Koivisto,Anna Häggqvist,Carina Saarela,Antti Revonsuo,Matti Laine,Heikki Hämäläinen +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the exposure to EMF does not alter the resting EEG per se but modifies the brain responses significantly during a memory task.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of electromagnetic fields emitted by cellular phones on the electroencephalogram during a visual working memory task
Christina M. Krause,L Sillanmäki,Mika Koivisto,Anna Häggqvist,Carina Saarela,Antti Revonsuo,Matti Laine,Heikki Hämäläinen +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the exposure to EMF modulates the responses of EEG oscillatory activity approximately 8 Hz specifically during cognitive processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identifying brain changes related to cognitive aging using VBM and visual rating scales.
Valentina Pergher,Philippe Demaerel,Olivier Soenen,Carina Saarela,Jos Tournoy,Birgitte Schoenmakers,Mira Karrasch,Marc M. Van Hulle +7 more
TL;DR: Supportive evidence is provided that MRI-VBM detects structural differences for education level, and correlates with educational level and age, and working memory task performance, as well as positive correlations found between visual ratings and both age and education.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regional gray matter correlates of memory for emotion-laden words in middle-aged and older adults: A voxel-based morphometry study
Carina Saarela,Carina Saarela,Juho Joutsa,Matti Laine,Matti Laine,Riitta Parkkola,Juha O. Rinne,Mira Karrasch +7 more
TL;DR: The findings indicate that the neural areas subserving memory for emotion-laden information encompass posterior brain areas, including the cerebellum, and that memory for emotions may be driven by cognitive control functions.
