Evaluating the evidence for the functional inhibition account of alpha-band oscillations during preparatory attention

A Morrow, M Elias, J Samaha - Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, 2023 - direct.mit.edu
The functional inhibition account states that alpha-band (8–14 Hz) power implements
attentional control by selectively inhibiting task-irrelevant neural representations. This …

Cerebral cortical activity following non-invasive cerebellar stimulation—A systematic review of combined TMS and EEG studies

L Fernandez, NC Rogasch, M Do, G Clark, BP Major… - The Cerebellum, 2020 - Springer

Alpha and theta mechanisms operating in internal-external attention competition

E Magosso, G Ricci, M Ursino - Journal of Integrative Neuroscience, 2021 - cris.unibo.it
Attention is the ability to prioritize a set of information at expense of others and can be
internally-or externally-oriented. Alpha and theta oscillations have been extensively …

Auditory sensitivity and decision criteria oscillate at different frequencies separately for the two ears

HT Ho, J Leung, DC Burr, D Alais, MC Morrone - Current Biology, 2017 - cell.com
Many behavioral measures of visual perception fluctuate continually in a rhythmic manner,
reflecting the influence of endogenous brain oscillations, particularly theta (∼ 4–7 Hz) and …

A meta-analysis of contingent-capture effects

C Büsel, M Voracek, U Ansorge - Psychological research, 2020 - Springer

Contingent-capture theory postulates that only top-down matching stimuli capture attention …

Alpha/beta oscillations reveal cognitive and affective brain states associated with role taking in a dyadic cooperative game

KP Flösch, T Flaisch, MA Imhof, HT Schupp - Cerebral Cortex, 2024 - academic.oup.com
