EEG is better when cleaning effectively targets artifacts

The paper shows that targeted artifact cleaning in EEG improves signal preservation and reduces effect size inflation and source localization biases compared to traditional methods.

Attrition Rates in Mindfulness-Based Interventions for Chronic Pain: A Meta-Analysis

This meta-analysis examines attrition rates in mindfulness-based interventions for chronic pain and identifies factors like completion thresholds, delivery method, and session format that influence participant withdrawal.

Neural differences in conflict monitoring and stimulus expectancy processes in experienced meditators are likely driven by enhanced attention

This study examines neural differences in conflict monitoring and attention between meditators and non-meditators using ERP measurements, finding enhanced N2 responses in meditators during hard Nogo trials.

Experienced meditators show greater forward travelling cortical alpha wave strengths

This study finds that experienced meditators have stronger forward traveling cortical alpha waves and weaker backward traveling alpha waves compared to non-meditators during rest and a cognitive task.

Uncovering a stability signature of brain dynamics associated with meditation experience using massive time-series feature extraction

The paper analyzes EEG data from meditators and non-meditators to identify time-series features that distinguish meditators, finding higher temporal stability in a specific EEG component.

A single- and paired-pulse TMS-EEG investigation of the N100 and long interval cortical inhibition in autism spectrum disorder

This study investigates GABA-mediated cortical inhibition in adults with ASD using TMS-EEG and finds no group differences in N100 amplitude or latency, or in long interval cortical inhibition.

Mindfulness meditation alters neural activity underpinning working memory during tactile distraction

This study finds that mindfulness meditation alters neural activity patterns during working memory tasks, leading to improved performance and different distribution of P300 and alpha activity.

Experienced meditators exhibit no differences to demographically-matched controls in theta phase synchronisation, P200, or P300 during an auditory oddball task

Mindfulness meditators do not show differences in electrophysiological measures of error processing

This study finds no differences in EEG measures of error processing between mindfulness meditators and controls, despite prior conflicting results.
