Non-invasive recordings of electrical and magnetic fields from the human brain have revealed spatio-temporal patterns of neuronal activity associated with sensory, motor, and cognitive processes. Recent technical advances allow for improved localization of these activity patterns to specific brain structures. This review considers how electrical and magnetic recordings can help to delineate the neural systems and information processing operations that underlie auditory and visual perception, selective attention, mental chronometry, and memory.
对人脑电场和磁场的无创记录揭示了与感觉、运动和认知过程相关的神经元活动的时空模式。最近的技术进步使得这些活动模式能够更精确地定位到特定的脑结构。本综述探讨了电记录和磁记录如何有助于描绘出支持听觉和视觉感知、选择性注意、心理计时和记忆的神经系统及信息处理操作。
