The results revealed that the speed of alpha brain waves in the parietal cortex plays a key role. This region of the brain ...

In A Nutshell Alpha brain waves cycling at 8-13 times per second determine how wide your “temporal binding window,” or the ...

Alpha oscillations – once thought to be the brain “idling” – are turning out to be way more important than we gave them ...

A new study reveals that the frequency of alpha waves in the parietal cortex influences how we perceive body ownership, ...

New research shows that the frequency of alpha waves in the parietal cortex impacts how we perceive body ownership. Faster wave frequencies enhance the precision of body ownership sensations, while ...

A new study from Karolinska Institutet, published in Nature Communications, reveals how rhythmic brain waves known as alpha oscillations help us distinguish between our own body and the external world ...

Different types of electrical activity within your brain dominate during certain times of day or during specific activities. Harnessing your brain’s alpha waves can help you enter a flow state, which ...

Neuroscientists recently made a correlation between an increase of alpha brain waves—either through electrical stimulation or mindfulness and meditation—and the ability to reduce depressive symptoms ...

The strength of alpha brain waves reveals if you are about to make a biased decision, according to research recently published in JNeurosci. Everyone has bias, and neuroscientists can see what happens ...
