The compositional nature of the human alpha rhythm

2026-01-25

Abstract excerpt

Resting-state brain activity is dominated by oscillations in the alpha band (8–13 Hz). The dominant frequency within this band, the individual alpha peak frequency (IAPF), has been widely used as a global marker of inter-individual variability in perceptual and cognitive functions, as well as clinical phenotypes. However, the traditional approach implicitly assumes a single oscillatory rhythm varying along a param...
