Abstract: | Spectral EEG characteristics were studied in 12 six-month healthy children in a state of attention, attracted by visual stimuli and also at lowering of the level of visual afferentation and in drowsiness. 12 parts of EEG records free from artefacts were used, with analysis epoch 5 s and discretion frequency 100 counts/s. Three independent rhythmic EEG components have been revealed in alertness state, corresponding by criteria of functional reactivity and topographic localization to theta, alpha and mu EEG rhythms of the adult man. It is suggested that formation of dominating EEG rhythm with age occurs due to changes in dominant relations of the key rhythmic successions with independent genesis. |
