Cell Reports, 2023 Summary: Alpha oscillations are a distinctive feature of the awake resting state of the human brain. However, their functional role in resting-state neuronal dynamics remains poorly understood.

Somatosensory alpha oscillations gate perceptual learning efficiency [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2019 Alpha power is known to play an important role in cognition and perception, but we do not understand the link between alpha power and perceptual learning efficacy.

Object-based attentional selection modulates anticipatory alpha oscillations [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015 Visual cortical alpha oscillations are involved in attentional gating of incoming visual information. It has been shown that spatial and feature-based attentional selection result in increased alpha oscillations over the cortical regions representing ...

Functional aspects of alpha oscillations in the EEG
International Journal of Psychophysiology, 2001 Experimental evidence suggests a functional significance of EEG alpha rhythms. Event-related, evoked, and induced alpha rhythms may have functional correlates in primary sensory processing and preparatory processes. These results are in accordance with the view that spontaneous and induced EEG alpha rhythms have quasi-deterministic properties.

The role of alpha oscillations in resisting distraction
Trends in Cognitive SciencesThe role of alpha oscillations (8-13 Hz) in suppressing distractors is extensively debated. One debate concerns whether alpha oscillations suppress anticipated visual distractors through increased power. Whereas some studies suggest that alpha oscillations support distractor suppression, others do not.

Attentional tracking reduces cortical alpha oscillations
Scientific ReportsThe premotor theory of attention suggests that both overt and covert attentional orienting are governed by similar mechanisms and neural structures, a concept extensively investigated in paradigms involving shifts in attention and gaze towards peripheral

The development of theta and alpha neural oscillations from ages 3 to 24 years
Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2021 Intrinsic, unconstrained neural activity exhibits rich spatial, temporal, and spectral organization that undergoes continuous refinement from childhood through adolescence.

Experimental placebo analgesia changes resting-state alpha oscillations. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The lack of clear understanding of the pathophysiology of chronic pain could explain why we currently have only a few effective treatments. Understanding how pain relief is realised during placebo analgesia could help develop improved treatments for ...
