Memory correlates with the difference between single and double-sensory evoked steady-state coherence in the gamma range (Δ The correlation is most pronounced for the anterior brain region (Δ The correlation is not driven by birth size, education, speed of processing, or intelligence. The sensitivity of Δ
Cerebral rhythmic activity and oscillations are important pathways of communication between cortical cell assemblies and may be key factors in memory. We asked whether memory performance is related to gamma coherence in a non-task sensory steady-state stimulation. We investigated 40 healthy males born in 1953 who were part of a Danish birth cohort study. Coherence was measured in the gamma range in response to a single-sensory visual stimulation (36 Hz) and a double-sensory combined audiovisual stimulation (auditive: 40 Hz; visual: 36 Hz). The individual difference in coherence (Δ
