Spectral Plot is one way to present frequency and amplitude information – start here
Numbers for Statistical Analysis • Quantitative EEG (QEEG)
Also between-site differences… • Absolute Magnitude • Relative Magnitude • Asymmetry • Coherence
Attenuation of temporal lobes • Beta1=SMR • Waveform morphology • Bipolar • Non-specific arousal
Power vs Magnitude • Squared microvolts vs microvolts
Cross-spectral analysis Coherence estimates phase consistency Comodulation estimates magnitude consistency …between signals at each specified frequency Coh = average normalized cross-spectrum amplitude2 Comod = average normalized cross-product amplitude Coh range from 0.0 to 1.0 Comod range from -1.0 to 1.0 Confusing point: Tukey called “coherency” the square root of coherence
Signals are coherent when phase relationship is stable Signals are comodulated (or hypermodulated) when magnitude relationship is stable
An individual’s data (rho) and his/her statistical (z) comparison to the database
Current EEG Applications • CLINICAL • Epilepsy (1930s) • Sleep (1940s) • Patient monitoring, anaesthesia • Head injury assessment • Neurological assessment (AEP, ERP) • Neurotherapy • Psychiatric assessment
Current EEG Applications • SCIENTIFIC • Attention • Workload • Circadian rhythms • Cognition • Learning & Memory • Neuroimaging co-registration
Future EEG Assessment • Subtype clinical conditions • Monitor attentional state • Lie Detection • Parole disposition
