Aggression is commonly associated with increased experiences of peer rejection and maladaptive social information processing biases throughout development. Little is known about the neural correlates of peer rejection that might underlie social information processing biases, and whether these neural correlates are common or different across early- and mid-adolescents on a continuum of aggression. Using the Cyberball task, we examined mediofrontal theta (4-7 Hz) event-related EEG spectral power during conditions of explicit and ambiguous social exclusion in 117 participants (57 early adolescents, ages 10-12 years, and 60 mid-adolescents, ages 14-16 years).

Introduction: Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) is a promising tool for modulating brain oscillations. This study investigated whether 5 Hz tACS could modulate neural oscillations in the prefrontal cortex and how this modulation impacts performance in working memory (WM) tasks.
Method: In two sessions, 28 healthy participants received 5 Hz tACS or sham stimulation over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) while performing tasks with high and low WM loads.

Periodic sensory inputs entrain oscillatory brain activity, reflecting a neural mechanism that might be fundamental to temporal prediction and perception. Most environmental rhythms and patterns in human behavior, such as walking, dancing, and speech do not, however, display strict isochrony but are instead quasi-periodic. Research has shown that neural tracking of speech is driven by modulations of the amplitude envelope, especially via sharp acoustic edges, which serve as prominent temporal landmarks.

Background: Acute encephalopathy with biphasic seizures and late reduced diffusion (AESD) is clinically characterized by biphasic seizures associated with mild to severe neurological sequelae and is the most common subtype of acute encephalopathy in Japan, accounting for around 30 % of cases. The present study retrospectively analyzed the utility of electroencephalography (EEG) in determining the optimal method of diagnosing AESD at the early stage.
Methods: This study explores early power value differences to differentiate acute encephalopathy from prolonged febrile seizure (FS).

Introduction: Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) leads to dysfunction and impairment in neurological structures and cognitive functions. Despite extensive research, the pathophysiological mechanisms and effects of MDD on the brain remain unclear. This study aims to assess the impact of MDD on brain activity using EEG power spectral analysis and asymmetry metrics.
