In multisensory environments, how inputs from different sensory modalities interact to shape perception are not fully understood. this study, we investigated auditory stimuli influence the temporal dynamics of visual processing using electroencephalography (EEG).

Detecting behavioural oscillations with increased sensitivity: A modification of Brookshire’s (2022) AR-surrogate method

Опубликована: Апрель 24, 2025

A core challenge of cognitive neuroscience is to understand how cognition changes over time within the same individual. For example, tendency for behavioural responses in a range domains oscillate has been studied extensively. Recently, however, phenomenon oscillations called into question by indications that past findings might reflect aperiodic temporal structure rather than true oscillations. Brookshire (2022) proposed methods control while examining time-courses and found no evidence reanalyses four published datasets. However, Brookshire’s method criticised having low sensitivity detect effects realistic magnitude, so it currently unclear whether these suggest are not present perhaps many other datasets, or they false negatives. Here, we modification AR-surrogate with increased adequate positives, desirable properties such as ability increase statistical power adding more participants. Using this method, reanalyse publicly available datasets show significant each them, suggesting behaviour robust upon which draw theoretical inferences.

Theoretical and Technical Issues Concerning the Measurement of Alpha Frequency and the Application of Signal Detection Theory: Comment on Buergers and Noppeney (2022)

Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 36(4), С. 691 - 699

Опубликована: Май 31, 2023

Classical and recent evidence has suggested that alpha oscillations play a critical role in temporally discriminating or binding successively presented items. Challenging this view, Buergers Noppeney [Buergers, S., & Noppeney, U. The of temporal within across the senses. Nature Human Behaviour, 6, 732-742, 2022] found by combining EEG, psychophysics, signal detection theory, neither prestimulus nor resting-state frequency influences perceptual sensitivity bias task. We propose following four points should be considered when interpreting oscillations, especially their frequency, on binding: (1) Multiple components can contaminated conventional EEG analysis; (2) effect perception will interact with power; (3) different from poststimulus which is during more directly related to binding; (4) applying theory under assumption equal variance, often incomplete problematic (e.g., magnitude relationships between individuals parametric may change converted into nonparametric sensitivity). Future directions, including solutions each issues, are discussed.

Abstract When presented shortly after another, discrete pictures are naturally perceived as continuous. The neuronal mechanism underlying such continuous or perception not well understood. While alpha oscillations a candidate for orchestrating mechanisms, recent evidence is mixed. In this study, we investigated the influence of prestimulus oscillation on visual temporal perception. Specifically, were interested whether phase modulates and perceptual processes Participant had to report location missing object in integration task, while simultaneously MEG data was recorded. Using source reconstruction, evaluated local effects by contrasting angle values between correctly incorrectly integrated trials. Our results show opposition cluster - 0.8 0.5 s (relative stimulus presentation) 6 20 Hz. These momentary correlated with behavioural performance event related potential amplitude.

Individual peak alpha frequency correlates with visual temporal resolution, but only under specific task conditions

European Journal of Neuroscience, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 60(7), С. 5591 - 5604

Опубликована: Авг. 23, 2024

The study of alpha band oscillations in the brain is a popular topic cognitive neuroscience. A fair amount research recent years has focused on potential role these may play discrete sampling continuous sensory information. In particular, question whether or not peak frequency linked with temporal resolution visual perception ongoing debate. Some studies have reported correlation between two, whereas others were unable to observe link. It unclear conflicting findings are due differing methodologies and/or low statistical power, absence true relationship. Replication needed gain better insight into this matter. current study, we replicated an experiment published 2015 paper by Samaha and Postle. Additionally, expanded adding extra behavioural task, critical flicker fusion investigate if any links generalizable across multiple measures for resolution. We succeeded replicating some, but all Postle's findings. Our partial replication suggests that there be link frequency. However, relationship very small only apparent specific stimulus parameters. correlations found our did generalize other
