Causal Evidence for the Role of Neuronal Oscillations in Top-Down and Bottom-Up Attention (2019, unknown): “In addition, when making categorical judgments about presented stimuli, coherent beta frequency oscillations between frontal and parietal cortex increase stimulus-driven gamma frequency oscillations in regions that represent task-relevant information (Antzoulatos & Miller, 2016).”
Causal role of cross-frequency coupling in distinct components of cognitive control (2021, background): “Beta oscillations are proposed to inhibit activity in order to maintain a particular task-set (Buschman et al., 2012; Antzoulatos and Miller, 2016, 2014; Wutz et al., 2018a, 2018b; Wischnewski et al., 2020; Schmidt et al., 2019), and delta oscillations may reflect an update or switch in relevant…”
Large-scale frontoparietal theta, alpha, and beta phase synchronization: A set of EEG differential characteristics for freezing of gait in Parkinson’s disease? (2022, background): “, 2001; Wang, 2010), low beta frequency band phase synchrony in frontoparietal networks in PD-FOG might indicate the exclusive neural activities and information transmission only about the task on hand, representing limited attention (Antzoulatos and Miller, 2016; D’Andrea et al., 2019; Gelastopoulo”
Rhythmic beta-frequency TMS over human right parietal cortex strengthens visual size illusions (2025, unknown): “For instance, brain oscillations in the beta frequency range have been implicated in top-down processing and long-distance inter-area communication (Antzoulatos & Miller, 2016; Buschman & Miller, 2009; Marshall et al., 2015; Stanley et al., 2018; Stoll et al., 2016).”
Frontal effective connectivity increases with task demands and time on task: a Dynamic Causal Model of electrocorticogram in macaque monkeys (2022, background): “This interpretation of the role of frontal beta-band oscillations is consistent with other studies, in which beta-band oscillations are ascribed to goal-directed cognition [77, 28, 78], and maintaining the task context in working memory [79].”
Nested oscillations and brain connectivity during sequential stages of feature-based attention (2020, background): “Following this line, other studies have hypothesized a role for β-band synchronization in establishing flexible networks of neuronal ensembles that carry content- and task-specific representations (Antzoulatos and Miller, 2016, 2014; Buschman et al., 2012; Spitzer and Haegens, 2017).”
