In a group including 72 adults of both sexes, we studied correlations between the estimates of the so-called coronary-prone
personality type (type A) diagnosed using the Jenkins questionnaire and the spectral powers (SPs) of the frequency components
(rhythms) of background EEGs recorded in the resting state (leads C3 and C4 according to the 10-20 system). Despite natural
high interindividual variability, estimates that characterized the subject as belonging to the behavioral type A corresponded,
on average, to relatively low SPs of the δ, θ, and α EEG components, intermediate values of the β1 rhythm SP and coefficient of reactivity of the α rhythm, and higher SPs of the high-frequency (β2 and γ) rhythms. Estimates characterizing type B personality corresponded to significantly higher δ-rhythm SPs, intermediate
SPs of the θ and α rhythms, and smaller SPs of the β and γ rhythms. The interhemisphere asymmetry coefficient for the α rhythm
was usually negative in type-A individuals and positive in the cases of types B and AB. The peculiarities observed are probably
determined, to a certain extent, by the fact that both the characteristics of the behavioral types of the personality and
the amplitude parameters of EEG rhythms depend significantly on inherited (in particular neurochemical) factors. Such peculiarities
of the neurodynamic constitution of the individual are determined, to a considerable extent, by the specificity of organization
and functioning of a few neurotransmitter (in particular aminergic) and neurohumoral systems. 相似文献

In a group of 70 adult subjects of both sexes, we estimated the levels of the need for achievement and its motivation (interpreted
as generalized characteristics of the state of the motivational sphere of a personality and diagnosed using questionnaires
of Orlov and Mehrabian) and examined the correlations of these estimates with spectral powers (SPs) of the frequency components
(rhythms) of the current background EEG (С3 and С4 leads according to the 10–20 system). Despite the fact that naturally high
interindividual variability exists, high estimates of the need for achievement correlated with medium values of the SPs of
most EEG frequency components (δ, θ, α, and β1 rhythms), low SPs of the β2 and γ rhythms, and higher values of the coefficient of reactivity (CR) of the α rhythm. A high level of the need for achievement
corresponded to higher SPs of the θ and γ rhythms and high CR of the α rhythm, a medium SP of this EEG component, and lower
SPs of the δ and β rhythms. The coefficient of interhemisphere asymmetry of the α rhythm was the highest at low values of
the studied psychological indices. Interrelations that we found in our study can be explained as follows: both the characteristics
of the need for achievement and motivation typical of a certain personality and the amplitude parameters of the EEG rhythms
observed in this individual depend significantly on genetically determined factors (in particular, on neurochemical ones).
These peculiarities of neurodynamic constitution of the individual are, to a considerable extent, due to the specificity of
organization and functioning of a few neurotransmitter (aminergic, in particular) and neurohumoral systems.

In a group of 118 adults of both sexes, we studied modulation of the low-frequency EEG components (δ and θ rhythms) under
conditions of an activation reaction resulting from opening of the eyes. Typical changes of the α rhythm (considerable depression
in a great majority of the tested subjects) was accompanied by diverse, in their direction, shifts of the spectral power (SP)
of the δ and θ components in different subjects. The δ rhythm power increased upon the reaction of activation in 79 subjects
and decreased in 29 subjects, while changes in this index in different hemispheres were of opposite directions in 10 persons.
According to the reactivity of the θ rhythm, the respective subgroups included 36, 75, and 7 subjects. Values of the differential
coefficients of reactivity (DCR) for the δ and θ rhythms demonstrated significant positive correlation (r = 0.616 and 0.603
for the left and right hemispheres, respectively). Indices of reactivity of the α and θ rhythms also correlated but less closely
(r about 0.3). At the same time, there was practically no correlation between the DCR values of the α and δ rhythms. Within
the entire studied group, we found significant negative correlations between the DCRs of the δ and θ activity with the estimates
of some psychological characteristics of the subjects (levels of extroversion, psychoticism, ergicity, plasticity, dominance,
and a few others) measured using the questionnaires RTS (Strelau), EPQ (Eysenck), OST (Rusalov), and 16 PF (Kettel). We also
found positive correlations with the levels of normativity of behavior and development of imagination. At a rather high significance
of such correlations, coefficients of the latter were, as a rule, relatively low (usually less than 0.2). Results of dispersion
analysis showed that significant or close to significant intergroup differences of the mean values of estimates of psychological
characteristics diagnosed according to the above-mentioned questionnaires were typical of the subgroups of subjects with increases
and decreases in the SPs of the δ and θ rhythms or with opposite changes of these indices in the hemispheres. Probable mechanisms
of modulation of the low-frequency EEG components under conditions of the activation reaction and correlations of such changes
with psychological peculiarities of the personality are discussed. 相似文献

In a group of 118 adults of both sexes, we studied modulation of high-frequency EEG rhythms (β and γ components) under conditions
of EEG activation related to opening of the eyes. Typical changes in the α rhythm (significant depression in the overwhelming
majority of the tested subjects) was accompanied by different (in direction and intensity) shifts of the spectral powers (SPs)
of the β and γ components in different subjects. The power of the β1 subcomponent under conditions of the activation reaction
increased in 6 persons and dropped in 109 persons; changes in this index in two hemispheres were opposite in their directions
in 3 subjects. Thus, changes in the β1 SP upon opening of the eyes were nearly parallel to those of the α rhythm but less
intense. The subgroups differentiated according to the pattern of reactivity of the β2 subcomponent included 23, 85, and 10
subjects; for the γ rhythm, the corresponding numbers were 31, 72, and 8. In other words, the patterns of reactivity of β2
and γ oscillations were rather similar to each other but differed significantly from the pattern for the β1 rhythm. Values
of the differential coefficients of reactivity (DCRs) of the β1, β2, and γ rhythms demonstrated significant correlations that
were especially close for the β2 and γ activity. Within the entire examined group, we found significant negative correlations
of the DCR values for β and γ activities with the estimates of some psychological characteristics of the subjects (levels
of neuroticism, psychoticism, plasticity, self-control of behavior, and some others) measured using the RTS (Strelau), EPQ
(Eysenck), OST (Rusalov), and 16PF (Kettel) questionnaires. The dispersion analysis demonstrated that the above-mentioned
subgroups of the subjects (with increase and decrease in the SPs of the β and γ rhythms in both hemispheres and opposite changes
of these indices in the right and left hemisphere) showed significant or close to significant specific intergroup differences
of a few mean values of the psychological characteristics estimated according to the above questionnaires. Possible mechanisms
of modulation of high-frequency EEG components under conditions of the reaction of EEG activation and relations of such changes
to the psychological characteristics of the personality are discussed. 相似文献

In a group of 80 adults of both sexes, we studied the correlation between the characteristics of aggressiveness of the individual
(diagnosed using the Buss-Durkee questionnaire) and parameters of the frequency components (rhythms) of EEG recorded in the
resting state from leads C3 and C4 according to the 10–20 system. Despite the natural high interindividual variability, the
higher spectral powers of nearly all EEG frequency components (δ-, θ-, α-, and β rhythms) and coefficient of reactivity of
the α rhythm corresponded in general to lower indices on the scales of the Buss-Durkee questionnaire and smaller values of
the index of aggressiveness and index of hostility. These correlations probably reflect a significant dependence of both characteristics
of aggressiveness of personality and amplitude parameters of the EEG rhythms on hereditary factors. Both these aspects of
the neurodynamic constitution of the individual are to a significant extent determined by the specificity of organization
and functioning of a few neurotransmitter (in particular, aminergic) and neurohumoral systems.

In a group including 65 adults of both sexes, we examined correlations of the internal/external personality type (locus of
psychological control diagnosed by the Rotter questionnaire) with parameters of the EEG frequency components (rhythms). Multichannel
recording of ongoing EEG was carried out in the resting state; leads were located according to the 10-20 system. Despite natural
high interindividual variability, the subgroup of internals was, in general, characterized by higher spectral powers (SPs)
of the δ, θ, α, and β1 rhythms and a lower SPs of β2 and γ oscillations recorded in the resting state with the eyes closed.
In internals, the modal frequencies of practically all EEG ranges were, on average, somewhat lower. In this subgroup, reaction
of EEG activation related to opening of the eyes was stronger, while the interhemisphere asymmetry was weaker. 相似文献

We studied peculiarities of the spectral characteristics of EEG in 111 healthy adult subjects of both sexes. The levels of
situative anxiety (anxiety state) and personal anxiety were estimated using the Spielberger–Khanin test system. To estimate
anxiety-related properties of the personality, Cattel’s technique 16 PF (form А) was used. Estimates of situative anxiety
demonstrated only two cases of positive correlation with the spectral power density (SPD) of EEG rhythms (SPDs of the beta2
rhythm in the right-hemisphere temporal and occipital regions; recording with the eyes open). Estimates of personal anxiety
positively correlated with the SPDs of the beta1 and (especially) beta2 EEG rhythms. Under conditions with the eyes open,
the number of significant correlations was greater, and correlations themselves were tighter than with the eyes closed. The
closest correlations of the estimates of personal anxiety with the SPDs of the beta rhythm were found in frontal and central
leads of both hemispheres and in parietal and occipital loci of the right hemisphere. Only a single case of correlation of
the alpha rhythm SPD with personal anxiety (negative correlation, a parietal lead in the left hemisphere) was found. At the
same time, rather numerous correlations of the alpha rhythm expression with an index congeneric to anxiety, the C factor by
the Cattel’s questionnaire (emotional stability/instability), were found. Thus, the intense beta EEG rhythm can be considered
an electrographic correlate of high situative and personal anxieties. At the same time, the alpha rhythm power correlates
with the emotional stability of the individual. We suppose that persons with a well-developed alpha rhythm are characterized
by active and stable functioning of the cerebral dopaminergic system; this simultaneously serves as a pre-requisite of high
emotional stability and social adaptability. 相似文献

Modifications of different EEG rhythms induced by a single neurofeedback session (by the EEG characteristics) directed toward
an increase in the ratio of the spectral powers (SPs) of the α vs θ oscillations were compared with the psychological characteristics of the tested subjects (the group included 30 persons).
A generally accepted neurofeedback technique was used; the intensity of acoustic white noise served as the feedback signal.
EEG potentials were recorded from the C3 and C4 leads. Psychological testing was carried out using Eysenck’s (EPQ), Rusalov’s
(OST), and (16 PF) questionnaires. The directions of changes in the SPs of EEG frequency components were found to significantly
correlate with some individuality-related peculiarities of the tested subjects. The SP of the δ rhythm correlated with the
EPQ scale “neuroticism,” OST scale “social plasticity,” and 16 PF factors H (“parmia”), I (“premsia”), and Q3 (“self-control of behavior”). The SP of the θ component demonstrated correlations with the OST scales “ergisity,” “plasticity,”
and “social temp” and with 16 PF factors M (“autia”), Q4 (“frustration”), and Q1 (“exvia”). The SP of the α rhythm correlated with 16 PF factors Q3 (“self-control of behavior”), G (“strength of superEgo”), O (“hypothymia”), L (“protension”), and N (“shrewdness”). The SP
of the β rhythm correlated with the OST scale “emotionality,” while that of the γ rhythm showed correlations with the 16 PF
indices L (“protension”) and M (“autia”). Changes in the ratio of the α vs θ SPs correlated with the EPQ scale “neuroticism.” Thus, our data confirm the statement that a high individual variability
of the results of a single (first in the series) neurofeedback session is to a great extent related to peculiarities of the
individual psychological pattern of the subject.

We studied changes in the frequency pattern of EEG related to a single session of biological feedback by the EEG characteristics
(neurofeedback, NFB) directed toward an increase in the ratio of α/θ spectral powers (SPs) (an experimental group; 30 subjects)
and to a session of the supposedly indifferent acoustic influence (listening to a musical background; 30 persons). A standard
technique of EEG recording was used; the loudness of white noise overlapping the musical background served as an NFB signal.
EEG was recorded from the C3 and C4 leads. Within the examined experimental group, an NFB session elicited a trend toward
statistically insignificant decreases in the SPs of δ, α, and β rhythms and increases in the SPs of θ and γ EEG components.
Listening to a supposedly neutral musical background by the control group, with no attempts at self-control of the SPs of
EEG rhythms, was followed by rather clear unidirectional (partially significant) decreases in the SPs of θ, α, β, and γ components;
the δ activity in the left hemisphere decreased, while in the right hemisphere it increased. In general, results of the single
NFB session were characterized by a high interindividual variability, which can be related mostly to the specificities of
psychophysiological characteristics of the personality of the tested subject.

We studied correlations between the frequency of background impulse activity (BIA) of dopaminergic (DAergic) neurons of the
ventral tegmentum (VT) and spectral power (SP) of the frequency components of EEG samples recorded in awake cats. The EEG
was recorded monopolarly (electrodes were fixed in the cranial bones) from the frontal, occipital, and right and left temporal
regions of the cortex. In a great majority of the cases, the BIA frequency of VT DA-ergic neurons demonstrated significant
positive correlations with changes in the SPs of the alpha and beta EEG rhythms. The closest correlations of the spiking frequency
of DA-ergic cells with the SP of the alpha rhythm was observed in the occipital region, while those with the beta SP were
found in the frontal area. Correlations of the activity of DA-ergic neurons with the SPs of the alpha and beta rhythms in
the left temporal cortical zone were closer, as compared with those in the symmetrical right zone. Correlations of the SPs
of the delta, theta, and gamma EEG components with the discharge frequency of VT DA neurons were of opposite directions, and
in most cases such correlations did not reach the level of significance. The results of this study show that, in some cases,
specific EEG patterns can be considered indicators of the state of the cerebral VT DA-ergic system.

We studied correlations of the spectral characteristics of EEG with the indices characterizing the level of attention in 60
children (12 to 13 years old). Indices of voluntary attention were measured using a complex of psychological tests, including
a Bourdon’s test (correcture test), a two-stimulus go/no-go test, a computer test (a modification of the Bourdon’s test for
characterization of concentration and stability of attention), and Schulte’s tables. Children manifesting a good working ability
(corresponding to the results of the go/no-go test and correcture test) showed relatively high values of the ratio of spectral
powers (SPs) of the beta 1 and theta rhythms. These ratios were greater in the right hemisphere; this is probably indicative
of a greater contribution of neuronal mechanisms of this hemisphere to providing watchfulness and stability of attention.
Children demonstrating increased impulsivity (according to the results of the go/no-go test) were characterized by low modal
frequencies of the alpha rhythm in the occipital brain regions, while children with relatively high values of this frequency
in various cerebral regions demonstrated high indices of attentiveness and rates of the cognitive processes. Children performing
the test task with especially high accuracy were characterized by high ratios of SPs of the low-frequency beta rhythm vs theta rhythm (mostly in the central and parietal regions of both hemispheres). The approach we have applied can be used for
measuring the objective indices characterizing the state of the attention sphere in children.

In chronic experiments on awake cats, we studied the dynamics of the spectral power density (SPD) of the α rhythm vs SPD of the θ rhythm ratio and also of the characteristics of impulse activity generated by supposedly noradrenergic (NA)
neurons of the locus coeruleus in the course of feedback (FB) sessions by EEG characteristics (EEG-FB). Trainings were performed using a technique analogous
to that in EEG-FB sessions for humans. The level of a sound noise signal presented to the animal decreased with increase in
the α/θ SPD ratio in the occipital lead. Changes in the level of the sound signal did not depend on EEG modulation in the
control series. The animals were trained to correlate changes in the loudness of the sound signal with the power of EEG rhythms
and, in such a way, to control the latter. The α/θ SPD ratio in EEG-FB sessions changed mostly due to a significant increase
in the α rhythm power. The frequency of the impulse activity of NA neurons increased in a parallel manner with such EEG modulation.
Possible mechanisms of the involvement of the cerebral NA system in the formation of the effects of EEG-FB sessions are discussed. 相似文献

The spectral powers (SPs) of the θ and α EEG rhythms were studied at different stages of visual set in children from five
to seven years of age. Children with a plastic set had a greater α band SP than those with a rigid set. At the set formation
stage, children with a rigid set displayed an increase in the SP of the θ band, which is a manifestation of an “immature”
activation reaction. Children with a plastic set exhibited an increase in the α band SP in the occipital lobes of both hemispheres.
The dynamics of the SP of the EEG rhythms differed in children younger and older than six years. At the set formation stage,
children from five to six years of age exhibited the above-mentioned “immature” activation reaction, while those from six
to seven years of age showed an increase in the α band SP in the occipital lobes. At the set actualization stage, an increase
in the α band SP was observed in the right caudal areas, while the set extinction stage was marked by a bilateral depression
of the α band in the frontal lobes. The importance of the involvement of specific cortical areas in visual perception and
the formation of a plastic set is discussed. 相似文献

We examined the dynamics of the ratios of spectral power densities (SPDs) of the alpha vs theta rhythms (α/θ ratio). of EEG and of the spiking frequency of supposedly dopaminergic (DA) neurons of the ventral tegmentum
in the course of neurofeedback sessions directed toward changes in the EEG characteristics. Trainings were performed using
techniques analogous to that used in neurofeedback sessions in humans. The level of the noise acoustic signal presented to
the animal decreased with increase in the α/θ ratio in the occipital leads. In the control realizations, there were no dependences
between the intensity of the acoustic signal and modulation of the current EEG. It was found that the animals learned, in
a conditioned-reflex mode, to correlate changes in the intensity of the sound signal and power of the EEG rhythms and to control
the latter; a high sound intensity was probably considered a factor of discomfort. The α/θ ratio in the course of neurofeedback
sessions changed due to some increase in the SPD of the alpha EEG component and a noticeable drop in the SPD of theta oscillations.
In a parallel manner with such modifications, augmentation of the spike activity of DA neurons was observed. Probable mechanisms
of the involvement of the cerebral DA system in the formation of the effects of neurofeedback sessions are discussed. 相似文献

We studied correlations between the estimates of the neuroticism level (one of the most significant factors of the emotional
sphere of a personality) and the amplitude/time characteristics of evoked EEG potentials (EPs). Passive and negative emotiogenic,
as well as neutral (from the emotional aspect) visual images (stimuli from the set of the International Affective Picture
System, IAPS), were presented to 102 tested persons. The neuroticism level was estimated based on Eysenck’s personality questionnaire.
We found that subjects with high estimates of the neuroticism level are characterized, in general, by somewhat higher rates
and intensities of processing of emotionally negative information, a higher level of activation of the processes of automatic
attention, and readiness to react to both significant and insignificant visual signals (with the aim of probably fighting
of a threat). These peculiarities were manifested as relatively shorter latencies of the Р1, N1, Р2, N2, and Р3 components
and as higher amplitudes of the Р2 component in the EPs induced by emotionally negative stimuli, as compared with the corresponding
indices in subjects with a low neuroticism level. The amplitudes of the N2 component in the case of presentation of negative
and neutral stimuli showed a trend toward a decrease. The approach used can be applied for obtaining objective indices interpreted
as correlates of peculiarities of the emotional responsiveness typical of a personality. 相似文献

We estimated the efficacy of using the technique of feedback (FB) by EEG characteristics (EEG-FB, neurotherapy) with the aim
of reducing increased anxiety levels in healthy 10- to 14-year-old children. The anxiety level was estimated using the Prikhojan
anxiety test, the Spielberger–Khanin questionnaire, and the House–Tree–Person projective drawing technique. Positive effects
of series of neurotherapy sessions were obvious. After training was completed, we observed significant increases in the ratios
of the amplitudes of alpha and theta rhythms, semsorimotor and theta rhythms, as well as of the modal frequency of the EEG
alpha rhythm in tested persons of the experimental group (n = 7). In the control group (n = 10), changes in these values did not reach the significance level. In the experimental group of tested persons subjected
to EEG-FB sessions, the anxiety level decreased appreciably; in addition, the indices “feeling of inferiority” and “frustration”
decreased significantly. In the control group, alterations of these psychological indices were not unidirectional. Therefore,
modifications of the EEG pattern, which occurred in the course of training and were accompanied by a decrease in the anxiety
level in the experimental group, can be indicative of the expediency of EEG-FB for the reduction of high anxiety levels in
children and teenagers. 相似文献

Electroencephalographic examination of 7-to 9-year-old children with sensorineural deafness of degrees II and III included
EEG recording in the resting state, in the course of reaction of activation (at opening of the eyes), under conditions of
rhythmic photostimulation with frequencies of 4, 6, 9, and 12 sec−1 and under those of the hyperventilation test. The results allow us to conclude that systems responsible for generation of
EEG in hard-of-hearing children demonstrate some functionally immaturity. The following facts confirm the above conclusion.
As compared with the norm, greater normalized spectral powers (SPs) of the delta and theta rhythms, a higher intensity of
electrogenesis (integral power of oscillations) within all frequency ranges, and a smaller mean frequency of the dominant
rhythm were typical of hard-of-hearing children. In these children, the reaction of activation in the majority of cases looked
like incomplete suppression of the alpha rhythm. Upon rhythmic photostimulation, hard-of-hearing boys and girls demonstrated
following of the rhythm at frequencies of 4 and 6 sec−1 while children with normal hearing demonstrated that at 9 and 12 sec−1 frequencies. The characteristics of EEG reactions under the conditions of the hyperventilation test reflected the immaturity
of the fronto-thalamic controlling system, as well as certain dysfunction of lower brainstem regions in children with disorders
of hearing.

We studied a number of EEG parameters and indices of personality characteristics (evaluated with the use of the MMPI questionnaire) in sixty 44- to 73-year-old patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). According to the intensity of the symptoms, they were classified into groups 1 and 2, with an initial or moderate level of disease manifestation. In group-2 patients, the powers of the - and -range rhythms were greater, as compared with those in group 1. This was combined with higher indices in scales 2 (depression, D), 8 (individualism, Sc), and 0 (introversion/extraversion, Si). A clear correlations between the EEG parameters and indices of personality structure were found. There were positive correlations between the normalized power of 2-rhythm and values of a few MMPI scales: 1 (supercontrol, Hs), 2 (depression, D), 4 (impulsivity, Pd), 7 (anxiety, Pt), 8 (individualism, Sc), and 0 (introversion/extraversion, Si). We also found negative correlations between the frequency of -rhythm and indices of supercontrol and anxiety scales. Correlations between different EEG parameters and MMPI scale indices depended on the level of disease manifestation. Our results allow us to assume a certain generality of the neurophysiological mechanisms determining modifications of the integral electrical activity of the brain and formation of individual psychological characteristics in parkinsonian patients. 相似文献

Correlations between individual differences in EEG characteristics of attention control systems and temperamental traits of children at the age of 11 months were studied. A sample of 88 healthy mono- and dizygotic twins at the ages of 10 to 11.5 months was examined. The EEG was recorded in the state of sustained attention to visual stimulus. Temperamental features were estimated by the Balleyguier's Questionnaire. Dependence of the scores on each of the basic temperamental traits (excitability, activity, and sociability) on the amplitudes of spectral frequency bands in 12 EEG leads was determined. To this end, the standard and stepwise linear regression techniques and multivariate discriminant analysis with training and test samples were applied. The intrapair correlations in mono- and dizygotic twins were compared in order to analyze the nature of individual differences in spectral characteristics of the EEG range. The main results are as follows. In 11-year-old children in the state of attention, the interindividual variability of spectral amplitudes in the band of the EEG recorded from the main cortical areas is caused, predominantly, by genetic factors. The extent of excitability inversely depends on the level of synchronization in the basic range (6.8–7.6 Hz), which includes both the rhythm in the retrosplenial cortical leads and the rhythms in the anterocentral cortical areas during sustained attention. The degree of passiveness is directly correlated with the level of synchronization in the higher subrange (8.4–8.8 Hz) of the rhythm in the anterocentral cortical areas during visual attention. It is suggested that certain individual differences in the temperament of one-year-old children are genetically determined by specific features of the inhibitory control over the functional state of the brain cortex. 相似文献

Coherence at the frequency of θ, α, and β EEG rhythms was analyzed in 14 adults and 23 children of 7–8 years old while they
performed cognitive tasks requiring an involvement of working memory (WM). We used the pair matching paradigm in which subjects
had to match a pair of stimuli shown in succession in the central visual field. The pairs of verbal and visuo-spatial stimuli
were mixed together and presented in a pseudo random order. Each pair was preceded by a warning signal that did not specify
a modality of upcoming stimuli. We analyzed EEG segments recorded (i) in the rest condition, (ii) prior to the first (reference)
stimulus (maintenance of nonspecific voluntary attention), and (iii) prior to the second (test) stimulus (retention of information
in WM). In the present study we focused on the regulatory functional components of WM, and therefore, the stimulus modality
has not been taken into account. In adults, maintaining nonspecific voluntary attention was accompanied by an increase of
the strength of θ-related functional coupling between medial areas of the frontal cortex and temporal cortical zones and by
a strengthening of local β-related functional connectivity in the fronto-central areas of the cortex. In children, no such
increase was found for θ rhythm; for β rhythm the increase was limited to several short-range functional links. In adults,
the retention of information in WM was accompanied by the growth in α coherence in distant fronto-parietal links, predominantly
in the right hemisphere, while in children information retention was accompanied by the growth of θ coherence in the inferio-temporal
and parietal cortical regions. The results of the study point to a relative immaturity of the mechanisms of executive control
of WM in children of 7–8 years old. 相似文献
