The Psychophysics of Brain Rhythms
It is becoming increasingly apparent that brain oscillations in various frequency bands play important roles in perceptual and attentional processes. Understandably, most of the associated experimental evidence comes from human or animal electrophysiological studies, allowing direct access to the oscillatory activities. However, such periodicities in perception and attention should, in theory, ...
متن کاملBrain Rhythms of Pain
Pain is an integrative phenomenon that results from dynamic interactions between sensory and contextual (i.e., cognitive, emotional, and motivational) processes. In the brain the experience of pain is associated with neuronal oscillations and synchrony at different frequencies. However, an overarching framework for the significance of oscillations for pain remains lacking. Recent concepts relat...
متن کاملGamma Rhythms in the Brain
Brain rhythms are activity fluctuations shared in populations of neurons. They are evident in extracellular electric fields and detectable through recordings performed within the brain or on the scalp. The gamma rhythm, a relatively high frequency (30– 80 Hz) component of these fluctuations, has received a great deal of attention. Gamma is modulated by sensory input and internal processes such ...
متن کاملBrain Rhythms: Enhancing Memories
A new study shows that different processes are responsible for maintaining relevant and suppressing irrelevant information. By promoting the suppression of irrelevant information, memories may be enhanced. Everyday we are bombarded with information from the media, colleagues, spouses and friends. Some of this information is relevant and important, but other information is irrelevant and should ...
