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

O Jensen, CD Tesche - European journal of Neuroscience, 2002 - Wiley Online Library
Recent theoretical work has suggested that brain oscillations in the theta band are involved
in active maintenance and recall of working memory representations. To test this theoretical …

Theta oscillations index human hippocampal activation during a working memory task
