Event-related theta oscillations: an integrative and comparative approach in the human and animal brain

This report provides a synthesis of results in both cat and human brains in order to point out the importance of theta responses during cognitive processes and P300 paradigms. The unique features of this report consisted of the fact that human and cat data during several cognitive paradigms were compared. The results open the way to formulate the selectively distributed theta system in the brain as analyzed by Başar, Schürmann and Sakowitz (this issue).
