Active Protection: Learning-Activated Raf/MAPK Activity Protects Labile Memory from Rac1-Independent Forgetting. (2018, unknown): “Learning-Activated Active Protection Considerable evidence supports the existence of active maintenance mechanisms for working memory lasting for seconds (Miller and Cohen, 2001; Palva and Palva, 2007) and long-term memory lasting for days (Bailey et al.”
The functional significance of delta oscillations in cognitive processing (2013, background): “At the moment, a large body of evidence suggests that oscillatory activity in all frequency bands is linked to a broad variety of perceptual, sensorimotor, and cognitive operations (Basar, 1998; Aoki et al., 1999; Klimesch, 1999; Palva and Palva, 2007).”
The Berlin Brain–Computer Interface: Non-Medical Uses of BCI Technology (2010, background): “A first body of evidence links medium and lower amplitudes in the alpha-frequency band (7–14 Hz) to better perception in somatosensory and visual discrimination tasks (Pfurtscheller and da Silva, 1999; Hanslmayr et al., 2005; Palva and Palva, 2007; van Dijk et al., 2008).”
Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience Integrative Neuroscience Neural Synchrony in Cortical Networks: History, Concept and Current Status (unknown): “…Viana Di Prisco, 1997; Roelfsema et al., 1997; von Stein et al., 2000), nonhuman (Eckhorn et al., 1993; Frien and Eckhorn, 2000; Gail et al., 2000; Kreiter and Singer, 1992, 1996; Maldonado et al., 2000) and human primates (Palva and Palva, 2007; Rodriguez et al., 1999; Tallon-Baudry et al., 1997).”
Beta-band oscillations--signalling the status quo? (2010, unknown): “disengagement of task-irrelevant brain areas, as well as working memory function and short-term-memory retention [8].”
Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation Enhances Individual Alpha Activity in Human EEG (2010, background): “The occipital alpha rhythm has been linked to cognition [4] and working memory [5] and is the main target of training-induced alterations by operant conditioning in the context of biofeedback [6].”
The role of oscillations and synchrony in cortical networks and their putative relevance for the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. (2008, background): “In contrast, evidence for an involvement of alpha activity in information processing has been provided by studies on mental imagery,(55) conscious somatosensory perception,(56) and WM tasks.(20) Furthermore, there is an evidence for a relationship between long-range coherence in the alpha-frequency ”
Brain oscillatory substrates of visual short-term memory capacity. (2009, background): “First, it might be possible that increased alpha activity also plays a role in specific mnemonic processes [9, 33].”
Prestimulus Oscillatory Activity in the Alpha Band Predicts Visual Discrimination Ability (2008, methodology): “Although alpha activity used to be considered an “idling” rhythm (for review, see Pfurtscheller et al., 1996), more recent proposals suggest that it either reflects active inhibition (Klimesch et al., 2007) or plays a direct role in cortical processing (Palva and Palva, 2007).”
Shaping Functional Architecture by Oscillatory Alpha Activity: Gating by Inhibition (2010, background): “The alpha increase has been suggested to either reflect active processing related to memory maintenance (Palva and Palva, 2007; Palva et al., 2007) or inhibition of posterior regions not required for the task (Klimesch et al., 2007).”
Prestimulus oscillations predict visual perception performance between and within subjects (2007, background): “In their review, Palva and Palva (2007) conclude that phase synchrony in the alpha frequency range between fronto-parietal networks belong to the neural correlates of consciousness.”
Beyond ERPs: Oscillatory neuronal dynamics (2012, unknown): “It should be mentioned that oscillatory activity in the alpha band has been proposed to play an active role in cognitive processing as well (S. Palva & Palva, 2007).”
Top-down selection of visual working memory contents is supported by alpha-band phase-synchronized oscillatory networks (2025, unknown): “First, α - band oscillation amplitudes and network synchronization may carry out distinct roles in the inhibition vs. top-down control of information ( S. Palva & Palva, 2007, 2011).”
