Summary
Electroencephalographic microstates reveal brain network activity. Their temporal dynamics differ in developmental or clinical populations versus healthy individuals, reflecting neurocognitive function.
Area of Science:
- Neuroscience
- Cognitive Neuroscience
- Psychophysiology
Background:
- Electrophysiologic microstates offer insights into whole-brain neuronal network activity.
- Microstate temporal dynamics are linked to neurocognitive functioning, development, and disease.
- Normative population-level data on microstate dynamics are currently lacking.
Conclusions:
- Microstate temporal dynamics reflect functionally relevant properties of large-scale brain networks.
- Microstate dynamics encode both typical and atypical neurocognitive functioning.
- This meta-analysis provides crucial normative data for understanding brain function.
