Microstate analyses have been implemented in several clinical conditions, including schizophrenia (Lehmann et al. 2005; Nishida et al. 2013; Strelets et al. 2003), depression (Strik et al. 1995), attention deficits in children (Brandeis et al. 1998; Latchoumane et al. 2013), and panic disorder (Kikuchi et al. 2011; Wiedemann et al. 1998). Although no studies have been done to date, microstate analyses may be potentially useful in alcoholism as well.
