DOI: 10.1016/j.brainres.2017.07.026
Abstract: Cognitive conflict is often experienced as a difficult, frustrating, and aversive state. Recent studies have indicated that conflict acts as an implicit cost during learning, valuation, and the instantiation of cognitive control. Here we investigated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.brainres.2018.04.021
Abstract: Medial frontal activity in the EEG is enhanced following negative feedback and varies in relation to dimensions of impulsivity. In 22 undergraduate students (Mage = 18.92 years, range 18-22 years), we employed a probabilistic negative reinforcement learning paradigm in… read more here.

Frontal theta-gamma ratio is a sensitive index of concussion history in athletes on tasks of visuo-motor control

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-54054-9
Abstract: Patients with mTBI often show deficits in executive function and changes in neural activity. Similar changes in those with a history of mTBI (i.e. concussion), however, have not been consistently reported. Frontal theta-to-gamma frequency ratio… read more here.

Cross-frequency coupling of frontal theta and posterior alpha is unrelated to the fidelity of visual long-term memory encoding

DOI: 10.1080/13506285.2022.2084480
Abstract: ABSTRACT Because visual long-term memory relies on multiple spatially distinct brain areas, encoding representations is likely to rely on networks formed via large-scale coupled neuronal oscillations. Decreases in occipital alpha power and increases in mid-frontal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/scan/nsad009
Abstract: Abstract Sensitivity to threat (ST) is thought to be a hallmark of the onset and maintenance of anxiety, which often manifests behaviorally as withdrawal, increased arousal and hypervigilant monitoring of performance. The current study investigated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ejn.15951
Abstract: Supplementing an earlier analysis of event‐related potentials in extensive motor learning (Margraf et al., 2022a, 2022b), frontal theta‐band activity (4–8 Hz) was scrutinized. Thirty‐seven participants learned a sequential arm movement with 192 trials in each… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/psyp.13483
Abstract: Prior research has identified two resting EEG biomarkers with potential for predicting functional outcomes in depression: theta current density in frontal brain regions (especially rostral anterior cingulate cortex) and alpha power over posterior scalp regions.… read more here.

Mid-frontal Theta during Conflict in a Value-based Decision Task

DOI: 10.1162/jocn_a_01741
Abstract: Abstract Mid-frontal theta is a sensitive marker for cognitive conflict. However, most research focuses on cognitive control paradigms (e.g., the Flanker task). Here, we ask if mid-frontal theta is also sensitive to response conflicts within… read more here.

Abstract: Cognitive conflicts typically arise in situations that call for sudden changes in our behavior. Resolving cognitive conflicts is challenging and prone to errors. Humans can improve their chances to successfully resolve conflicts by mentally preparing… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0283418
Abstract: Previous neurofeedback research has shown training-related frontal theta increases and performance improvements on some executive tasks in real feedback versus sham control groups. However, typical sham control groups receive false or non-contingent feedback, making it… read more here.
