Abstract: Retroactive cuing of information after encoding improves working memory performance. However, there is an ongoing debate on the contribution of target enhancement vs. distractor inhibition attentional sub-processes to this behavioral benefit. We investigated the electrophysiological… read more here.

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: 10.1111/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.

DOI: 10.1162/jocn_a_01846
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.
