• Causal Evidence for a Role of Theta and Alpha Oscillations in the Control of Working Memory (2020, unknown): “Because theta and alpha oscillations are theorized to play opposite roles in either prioritizing or suppressing representations [14, 27, 28], we predicted that the beneficial (or detrimental) impact of rhythmic TMS on performance would depend on whether the TMS frequency was matched (or mismatched) ”
• Causal Evidence for the Role of Neuronal Oscillations in Top-Down and Bottom-Up Attention (2019, unknown): “A previous theta frequency TMS study found that stimulation boosted perceptual sensitivity to a global gestalt that required increased perceptual binding (Romei et al., 2011).”
• Parietal Alpha Oscillatory Peak Frequency Mediates the Effect of Practice on Visuospatial Working Memory Performance (2022, unknown): “We then calculated an inverse efficiency score (IES), which is an index combining both RTs and accuracy by dividing each participant’s mean RT for their relative AR, according to the following formula [77,86,87]:”
• Rhythmic beta-frequency TMS over human right parietal cortex strengthens visual size illusions (2025, unknown): “Moreover, rhythmic TMS over the right parietal cortex at theta frequency can facilitate global visual processing (Romei et al., 2011).”
• Skill and experience impact neural activity during global and local biological motion processing. (2023, unknown): “Moreover, bilateral beta activity may facilitate local perception (Liu and Luo, 2019; Pitchford and Arnell, 2019; Romei et al., 2011).”
