Periodic appearance of theta rhythm in the frontal midline area during performance of a mental task

TLDR
The results suggest that appearance of Fm theta shows individual differences and there might exist some periodicity of an attention mechanism in certain subjects.

Meditation States and Traits: EEG, ERP, and Neuroimaging Studies.

TL;DR: Psychological and clinical effects of meditation are summarized, integrated, and discussed with respect to neuroimaging data, and meditation appears to reflect changes in anterior cingulate cortex and dorsolateral prefrontal areas.

Frontal theta activity in humans increases with memory load in a working memory task.

TL;DR: The results suggest that theta oscillations generated in frontal brain regions play an active role in memory maintenance.

Motivation, emotion, and their inhibitory control mirrored in brain oscillations

TL;DR: Evidence is summarized which shows that delta oscillations depend on activity of motivational systems and participate in salience detection, and that slow-wave and alpha oscillations are reciprocally related to each other.

Frontal midline theta and the error-related negativity: neurophysiological mechanisms of action regulation.

TL;DR: These results appear consistent with a body of research that demonstrates a relationship between limbic theta activity and action regulation, including error monitoring and learning.

P300-response: possible psychophysiological correlates in delta and theta frequency channels. A review.

TL;DR: A working hypothesis is derived assuming that delta responses are mainly involved in signal matching, decision making and surprise, whereas theta responses are more related to focused attention and signal detection.

Crosscorrelation and autocorrelation studies of electroencephalographic potentials

TL;DR: It is shown that some additional information can be brought into the study of brain potentials by techniques developed in communication engineering by applying crosscorrelation analysis and autocorrelation analysis when no automatic correlator is available.
