As interest increases in the possible effects of the phase of neural oscillations on perception
and cognition, new conceptual and methodological challenges arise. One prominent …

Theta rhythms govern rodent sniffing and whisking, and human language processing.
Human psychophysics suggests a role for theta also in visual attention. However, little is …

The role of alpha oscillations (8–13 Hz) in suppressing distractors is extensively debated.
One debate concerns whether alpha oscillations suppress anticipated visual distractors …

One of the seminal findings of cognitive neuroscience is that the power of occipital alpha-
band (~ 10 Hz) brain waves is increased when peoples' eyes are closed, rather than open …

Perception is a probabilistic process dependent on external stimulus properties and one's
internal state. However, which internal states influence perception and via what mechanisms …

Neural oscillations in the low frequencies, roughly in the alpha band (α, 5–15 Hz), have
been suggested to act as a gateway from sensation to perception. This hypothesis assumes …

Research on whether perception or other processes depend on the phase of neural
oscillations is rapidly gaining popularity. However, it is unknown which methods are …

Is it true that we learn better what we like? Current neuroaesthetic and neurocomputational
models of aesthetic appreciation postulate the existence of a correlation between aesthetic …

Sensory attenuation (ie, the phenomenon whereby self-produced sensations are perceived
as less intense compared to externally occurring ones) is among the neurocognitive …

E-learning activities are becoming more and more common. Whilst it is well known that the
physical presence of others motivates individuals to engage in perceptual and learning …
