Deconstructing the resting state: Exploring the temporal dynamics of frontal alpha asymmetry as an endophenotype for depression
Asymmetry in frontal electrocortical alpha-band (8-13 Hz) activity recorded during resting situations (i.e., in absence of a specific task) has been investigated in relation to emotion and depression for over 30 years. This asymmetry reflects an aspect of endogenous cortical dynamics that is stable...
