Journal ArticleDOI

Electroencephalographic signatures of attentional and cognitive default modes in spontaneous brain activity fluctuations at rest

TL;DR: It is suggested that alpha oscillations signal a neural baseline with “inattention” whereas beta rhythms index spontaneous cognitive operations during conscious rest, and that activity in these networks is associated with distinct EEG signatures.
Journal ArticleDOI

EEG-correlated fMRI of human alpha activity.

TL;DR: Continuous and simultaneous EEG/fMRI is implemented to identify BOLD signal changes related to spontaneous power fluctuations in the alpha rhythm, the dominant EEG pattern during relaxed wakefulness, and a strong negative correlation of parietal and frontal cortical activity with alpha power was found.
Journal ArticleDOI

A supramodal number representation in human intraparietal cortex.

TL;DR: In the absence of explicit magnitude processing, numbers compared with letters and colors across modalities activated a bilateral region in the horizontal intraparietal sulcus, which supports the idea of a supramodal number representation that is automatically accessed by presentation of numbers and may code magnitude information.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modulation of neural responses to speech by directing attention to voices or verbal content.

TL;DR: This study studied with functional neuroimaging the cortical response to auditory sentences, comparing two recognition tasks that either targeted the speaker's voice or the verbal content, confirming the participation of visual cortical regions in verbal analysis of speech.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spontaneous local variations in ongoing neural activity bias perceptual decisions

TL;DR: Prestimulus activity in the fusiform face area, a cortical region preferentially responding to faces, was higher when subjects subsequently perceived faces instead of the vase, which suggests that endogenous variations in prestimulus neuronal activity biased subsequent perceptual inference.
