tACS phase effects generalize from the alpha to the delta and theta oscillation ranges

Evidence

A first experiment (Riecke et al. 2015 ) shows that auditory effects of alpha-tACS phase (Neuling et al. 2012 ) can be reproduced for the delta/theta range using a more rigorous methodological approach. An ongoing follow-up experiment is using an informational masking paradigm to explore whether these results can be extended to sustained sounds in scenes. — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 4774

• QUESTION: Worth tracking whether the ongoing informational-masking study shows tACS effects on scene analysis — a key open question about real-world relevance.
