Perceptual segregation of targets from distractors may depend on cortical temporal coherence

Evidence

Whether tACS phase modulates this temporal coherence and therewith the segregability of the target remains to be shown; the preliminary data presented here indicate a trend toward a possible effect of 4-Hz tACS phase, as in experiment 1. — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 4809
