α phase-amplitude tradeoffs predict visual perception

C Fakche, R VanRullen, P Marque, L Dugué - ENeuro, 2022 - eneuro.org
Spontaneous α oscillations (∼ 10 Hz) have been associated with various cognitive
functions, including perception. Their phase and amplitude independently predict cortical …

Prestimulus alpha phase modulates visual temporal integration

M Johannknecht, A Schnitzler, J Lange - Eneuro, 2024 - eneuro.org
When presented shortly after another, discrete pictures are naturally perceived as
continuous. The neuronal mechanism underlying such continuous or discrete perception is …

[HTML][HTML] Pre-stimulus alpha-band phase gates early visual cortex responses

W Dou, A Morrow, L Iemi, J Samaha - Neuroimage, 2022 - Elsevier
Abstract Alpha-band (8-13 Hz) oscillations have been shown to phasically inhibit perceptual

A randomized controlled trial of alpha phase-locked auditory stimulation to treat symptoms of sleep onset insomnia

S Bressler, R Neely, RM Yost, D Wang - Scientific Reports, 2024 - nature.com
Sleep onset insomnia is a pervasive problem that contributes significantly to the poor health
outcomes associated with insufficient sleep. Auditory stimuli phase-locked to slow-wave …

No evidence for a single oscillator underlying discrete visual percepts

A Morrow, J Samaha - European Journal of Neuroscience, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Theories of perception based on discrete sampling posit that visual consciousness is
reconstructed based on snapshot‐like perceptual moments, as opposed to being updated …

Individual alpha frequency appears unrelated to the latency of early visual responses

A Morrow, W Dou, J Samaha - Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023 - frontiersin.org
A large body of work has linked neural oscillations in the alpha-band (8–13 Hz) to visual
perceptual outcomes. In particular, studies have found that alpha phase prior to stimulus …
