Human Differential Alpha Conditioning an Eeg Study

Pavlovian conditioning is argued to provide a basis for understanding predictive learning in humans. Extending this idea to a neurobiological account requires an understanding of the integrated brain activity between regions. One means of integration may be through synchronised activity between particpating neural networks, evident in the human EEG as changes in amplitude, phase and frequency.This work examined conditional changes in alpha amplitude to see if it could provide an index of the integrated brain activity involved in associative learning.
