Periodic visual stimulation and analysis of the resulting steady-state visual evoked potentials were first introduced over 80 years ago as a means to study visual sensation and perception. From the first single-channel recording of responses to modulated light to the present use of sophisticated digital displays composed of complex visual stimuli and high-density recording arrays, steady-state methods have been applied in a broad range of scientific and applied settings.The purpose of this article is to describe the fundamental stimulation paradigms for steady-state visual evoked potentials and to illustrate these principles through research findings across a range of applications in vision science.

- Temporal filling-in reduces attentional fluctuations in sustained visual attention (2026, unknown): “To circumvent this difficulty, we employed a rhythmic visual timing task in which visual attention fluctuates periodically (Large and Jones, 1999) and used visual SSEPs to track visual responses entrained to the periodicity (Norcia et al., 2015).”
- Intracranial EEG referencing for large-scale category-selective mapping in the human ventral occipito-temporal cortex (2025, unknown): “…to overcome the challenge of comparing across multiple reference montages with rich iEEG signals, we rely on a powerful frequency-tagging method ( Norcia et al., 2015; Regan, 1989; Rossion et al., 2018) that provides objective identification (i.e., at the stimulated frequency) and quantification…”
- Rhythmic visual stimulation as a window into early brain development: A systematic review (2023, methodology): “Similar phenomena have been described in subsequent studies (Gulbi-naite et al., 2019), which suggests that the RVS response does not only reflect the tracking of a specific visual stimulus, but also leads to resonant phenomena in the brain (Norcia et al., 2015).”
- Oscillatory entrainment to our early social or physical environment and the emergence of volitional control (2022, unknown): “…has measured early life entrainment to ‘pure ’ periodic stimuli (sometimes known as steady state evoked potentials, or frequency tagging), both in the visual (e.g. (K ¨ oster et al., 2019; Wieser et al., 2016)) and auditory (Cirelli et al., 2016) domains (see (Norcia et al., 2015) for review).”
