AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
The investigation of brain oscillations and connectivity has become an important topic in the recent decade. There are several types of interactions between neuronal oscillations, and one of the most interesting among these interactions is phase-amplitude coupling (PAC). Several methods have been proposed to measure the strength of PAC, including the phase-locking value, circular-linear correlation, and modulation index. In the current study, we compared these traditional PAC methods with simulated electroencephalogram signals. Further, to assess the PAC value at each time point, we also compared two recently established methods, event-related phase-locking value and event-related circular-linear correlation, with our newly proposed event-related modulation index (ERMI). Results indicated that the ERMI has better temporal resolution and is more tolerant to noise than the other two event-related methods, suggesting the advantages of utilizing ERMI in evaluating the strength of PAC within a brain region.

Semantic memory, a repository for concepts and factual information, plays a vital role in acquiring and retrieving knowledge. This study explores the impact of age-related knowledge accumulation on semantic cognition, investigating whether a denser representational space affects retrieval processes. Using a semantic feature verification task, we employ both behavioral (reaction time; RT) and neurophysiological (event-related potential; ERP) measures to explore these dynamics across young and older adults.

When engaged in dynamic or continuous movements, action initiation involves modifying an ongoing motor program rather than initiating it from rest. Event-related theta synchronization over sensorimotor areas is a neurophysiological marker for modifying motor programs. We used electroencephalography (EEG) to examine how task complexity and age affect event-related synchronization (ERS) in the theta band during a dynamic bimanual, visuomotor pinch force task.

An ERP experiment was conducted to investigate the common and distinct neurocognitive mechanisms underlying the on-line processing of two types of politeness maxims (self-depreciation and other-elevation) and the individual differences during sentence reading. Electroencephalograms were recorded while participants read sentences containing pragmatically appropriate or inappropriate honorific or humble terms. When collapsing all participants' data, inappropriate humble and honorific terms elicited N400 and P600 effects, respectively, which could reflect semantic processing costs and rechecking processes, respectively.

Two event-related brain potential (ERP) components, the frontocentral feedback-related negativity (FRN) and the posterior P300, are key in feedback processing. The FRN typically exhibits greater amplitude in response to negative and unexpected outcomes, whereas the P300 is generally more pronounced for positive outcomes. In an influential ERP study, Hajcak et al.

Audiovisual associative memory and audiovisual integration involve common behavioral processing components and significantly overlap in their neural mechanisms. This suggests that training on audiovisual associative memory may have the potential to improve audiovisual integration. The current study tested this hypothesis by applying a 2 (group: audiovisual training group, unimodal control group) * 2 (time: pretest, posttest) design.
