Short‐term recall of nine‐digit strings and the EEG
In three exploratory studies, EEG changes were monitored while subjects performed a nine‐digit recall task. Experiment 1 involved auditory presentation without practice or prior instruction. EEG characteristics measured before the task related to subsequent recall, EEG activation increased progressively during digit presentation and rehearsal, and several between‐ and within‐subject analyses showed increased activation to be associated with poor …
Stimulus Complexity, Eeg Abundance Gradients, and Detection Efficiency in a Visual Recognition Task
Occipital EEG was monitored while subjects inspected 27 projected patterns. The number ( N ) and variety ( V ) of elements in the patterns were varied systematically. There were three levels of N (6, 12 or 24 elements) and three levels of V (circles, squares or hexagons occupying all, one half or one third of the element locations for all levels of N ). Subjects were instructed that they would be required in a post‐test to recognize the patterns,…
Arousal Value of the Stimulus and Eeg Abundance in an Auditory Vigilance Task
The EEG was monitored during an auditory vigilance task. The wanted signal consisted of three consecutive odd digits. Five other types of signal varied in their approximation to the wanted signal and were ranked on that criterion for their ‘arousal’ value. Each signal was followed by a rest period. The key results were: (i) alpha abundance (8·5–13·5 Hz) diminished as the arousal value of the signal increased ( P P P P P P P P P
Types of Imagery and Imagery Types
The occipital EEG of subjects differing in reported vividness of mental imagery was monitored during a series of mental imagery tasks. (i) Vivid imagers (selected on the basis of the Betts Vividness of Imagery Scale) had a higher mean dominant alpha frequency (m.d.f.) than weak imagers (P < 0·025), but there were no individual differences for alpha abundance. The difference for m.d.f. held for only one task - an eyes-open, minimal imaging conditi…
Stimulus Complexity and the Occipital Eeg
Occipital EEG was monitored during long‐term exposure to visual stimulus arrays of five levels of complexity. Integrated EEG output was recorded for nine separate frequency bands. The stimuli were two, four, eight, 16 or 32 randomly located white squares on a black background. Mid‐alpha activity (8·5–10·5 Hz) decreased linearly with log 2 n , where n = number of squares in the array ( P P P
Extraversion‐introversion, Neuroticism and the Eeg
Occipital EEG was monitored during habituation trials to a regularly presented auditory stimulus. The subjects were selected in accordance with a factorial design which varied extraversion–introversion and neuroticism independently. A double‐blind procedure was adopted for recording, scoring and statistical analysis. The EEG of extraverts and introverts was not differentiable; however, high neurotic groups were shown to have significantly greater…
Extraversion—introversion and the Eeg
Studies relating measures of the EEG to extraversion—introversion are reviewed and criteria set up for their evaluation. A new measure of mean dominant frequency is proposed. Extravert and introvert EEGs are compared, firstly across the whole frequency range (with eyes closed) and secondly across theta, alpha and beta ranges under alternating conditions of eyes closed/eyes open. With the eyes closed, the extravert EEG is higher in integrated outp…
