Frequency-specific modulation of population-level frequency tuning in human auditory cortex (2009)

Okamoto, Hidehiko, Stracke, Henning, Zwitserlood, Pienie, Roberts, Larry E, Pantev, Christo

Abstract Background Under natural circumstances, attention plays an important role in extracting relevant auditory signals from simultaneously present, irrelevant noises. Excitatory and inhibitory...

Distributed Auditory Cortical Representations Are Modified When Non-musicians Are Trained at Pitch Discrimination with 40 Hz Amplitude Modulated Tones (2004)

Bosnyak, Daniel J., Eaton, Robert A., Roberts, Larry E.

Several functional brain attributes reflecting neocortical activity have been found to be enhanced in musicians compared to non-musicians. Included are the N1m evoked magnetic field, P2 and...

Functional organization of primary somatosensory cortex depends on the focus of attention (2002)

Braun, Christoph, Haug, Monika, Wiech, Katja, Birbaumer, Niels, Elbert, Thomas, Roberts, Larry E.

We used magnetic source imaging in human subjects to reveal within-subject variations of the homuncular hand representation within the primary somatosensory cortex modulated by attention. In one...

Tonotopic organization of the sources of human auditory steady-state responses (1996)

Pantev, Christo, Roberts, Larry E., Elbert, Thomas, Ross, Bernhard, Wienbruch, Christian

Steady-state responses (SSRs) or steady-state fields (SSFs) show maximum amplitude when tone pulses are presented at repetition rates near 40 Hz. This result has led to the hypothesis that the...

Modulation of Slow Cortical Potentials by Instrumentally Learned Blood Pressure Responses (1992)

Elbert, Thomas, Roberts, Larry E., Lutzenberger, Werner, Birbaumer, Niels

We assessed whether instrumentally-learned pressor responses inhibit electrocortical acitivity, as predicted by learning theories of idiopathic hypertension. Subjects received beat-by-beat feedback...

Area-specific self-regulation of slow cortical potentials on the sagittal midline and its effects on behavior (1992)

Birbaumer, Niels, Roberts, Larry E., Lutzenberger, Werner, Rockstroh, Brigitte, Elbert, Thomas

Exteroceptive feedback was given for negative and positive shifts in slow potentials (SPs) recorded from Fz, Cz, or pz (between groups design). Slow potentials at the feedback site were referred to...
