BETA ACTIVITY: A CARRIER FOR VISUAL ATTENTION
... ABSTRACT. The alpha (8-13 Hz), beta (15-25 Hz) and gamma (30-60 Hz) bands of the EEG have been long studied in clinical research because of their putative functional importance. Old experimental results indicated that repetitive stimulation of the visual pathway evoked synchronous responses at the c ...
