Abstract

A recent study in monkeys reports that oscillatory neuronal synchronization between ensembles of prefrontal neurons is involved in rule selection. The study demonstrates that beta-band synchronization (19-40. Hz) reflects the selection of a rule, whereas alpha-band synchronization (6-16. Hz) reflects the active inhibition of a not-to-be-applied rule.
