This EEG pattern is known as a theta rhythm.
What is meant here is that theta rhythms may affect those aspects of learning and memory which are dependent upon synaptic plasticity.
It has not been established that septal lesions exert their effects specifically by eliminating the theta rhythm.
Colours swirled, ebbing and flowing to the theta rhythms of hypnagogic sleep.
Two types of theta rhythm have been described.
The function of the hippocampal theta rhythm is not clearly understood.
The most popular theories, however, link the theta rhythm to mechanisms of learning and memory.
This EEG pattern is known as the hippocampal theta rhythm.
A large body of evidence indicates that theta rhythm is likely involved in spatial learning and navigation (Buzsáki, 2005).
The synchronous theta rhythm ranges from 4 to 7 Hz.
