EEG alpha oscillations: The inhibition–timing hypothesis
TL;DR: The general conclusion is that alpha ERS plays an active role for the inhibitory control and timing of cortical processing whereas ERD reflects the gradual release of inhibition associated with the emergence of complex spreading activation processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
A shift of visual spatial attention is selectively associated with human EEG alpha activity
Paul Sauseng,Wolfgang Klimesch,Waltraud Stadler,Manuel Schabus,Michael Doppelmayr,Simon Hanslmayr,Walter Roland Gruber,Niels Birbaumer +7 more
TL;DR: It was found that prefrontal cortex shows stronger phase coupling with posterior sites that are contralateral to the attended hemifield than ipsilateral sites, and that this posterior modulation of alpha activity is controlled by prefrontal regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prestimulus oscillations predict visual perception performance between and within subjects.
Simon Hanslmayr,Alp Aslan,Tobias Staudigl,Wolfgang Klimesch,Christoph Herrmann,Karl-Heinz T. Bäuml +5 more
TL;DR: Investigation of the electrophysiological correlates of perceiving shortly presented visual stimuli concludes that alpha, beta and gamma oscillations indicate the attentional state of a subject and thus are able to predict perception performance on a single trial basis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oscillatory power decreases and long-term memory: the information via desynchronization hypothesis
TL;DR: Applying mathematical models of information theory, it is demonstrated that neural desynchronization is positively related to the richness of information represented in the brain, thereby enabling encoding and retrieval of long-term memories.

The electrophysiological dynamics of interference during the stroop task
Simon Hanslmayr,Bernhard Pastötter,Karl-Heinz T. Bäuml,Sieglinde Gruber,Maria Wimber,Wolfgang Klimesch +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an electroencephalogram (EEG) study was carried out to explore how the brain deals with interference in this type of task, and the authors concluded that interference between color naming and word meaning in the Stroop task manifests itself at around 400 msec and mainly activates the anterior cingulate cortex.
