Multiplexed Levels of Cognitive Control through Delta and Theta Neural Oscillations (2024, background): “…studies, for example, indicate that there is an interplay between gamma and beta in pFC (Lundqvist et al., 2016, 2023), whereas alpha dynamics are typically observed during working memory maintenance in parietal and visual cortices (Sreenivasan & D ’ Esposito, 2019; van Ede, 2018; Klimesch, 2012).”
Multimodal neuroimaging of hierarchical cognitive control. (2024, background): “…may provide inhibitory control signals that regulate access to representations stored in memory (Klimesch, 2012; Lundqvist et al., 2023; van Ede, 2018) and a disinhibition from these signals, as measured by desynchronization, would allow reading out relevant information from memory (Miller…”
Linking the multiple-demand cognitive control system to human electrophysiological activity (2025, unknown): “These discrepancies may be driven by multiple factors such as stimulus presentation style (simultaneous vs. successive) (Hsieh et al., 2011), task content (verbal vs. visual) (van Ede, 2018), or differing neural sources of alpha activity (Rodriguez-Larios et al., 2022).”
Inhibitory control in WM gate-opening: Insights from alpha desynchronization and norepinephrine activity under atDCS stimulation (2024, methodology): “This aligns also with a framework presented by van Ede (2018), which emphasizes the significance of regionally specific alpha desynchronization when item specific information needs to prioritized in working-memory tasks.”
Changes in behavioral priority influence the accessibility of working memory content (2023, result): “These results complement existing findings suggesting that internal and external spatial attention are uniquely indexed by posterior alpha-band oscillations (e.g., Poch et al., 2014; Foster et al., 2016; Samaha et al., 2016; van Ede, 2018).”
Neural oscillations track the maintenance and proceduralization of novel instructions (2021, background): “On the one hand, changes in the attentional focus are revealed by activity in the alpha frequency range (8–14 Hz) ( Hari & Salmelin, 1997 ; Klimesch, Sauseng, & Hanslmayr, 2007 ; Senoussi, More-land, Busch, & Dugué, 2019 ; van Ede, 2017 ).”
