Text

Resting EEG was recorded while subjects lay quietly with eyes closed in a sound attenuated room. Subjects were alerted frequently to avoid drowsiness, and were instructed to remain still and inhibit blinks or eye movements during each recording period. EEG was recorded using a 35-channel enhanced version of the International 10–20 System of Electrode Placement with additional electrodes located over prefrontal and parietooccipital regions (indicated by red dots and labels in Figure 1A). Ag|AgCl electrodes were placed using an electrode cap (ElectroCap, Inc.; Eaton, OH) referenced to Pz. Electrode impedances were balanced and under 5 kΩ for all electrodes. Vertical and horizontal electro-oculograms (EOG) were recorded for identification of eye movement artifact using bipolar electrodes placed at the supraorbital and infraorbital ridge of the right eye and the outer canthi of the left and right eye, respectively.
