Functional Brain Network Analysis in Children Performing Working Memory Tasks: EEG Study

In the current study, we analyzed EEG data from children 10-12 years old during the performance of Working Memory Task. To calculate connectivity between some areas of brain (Frontal, Left and Right Temporal, Central and Occipital-Parietal) we calculated average Phase-Locking Value between each areas. We find relationships between reaction time and Left Temporal - Central and Right Temporal - Central synchronizations. These results can indicate a relationship between the speed of decoding information during working memory load and the phase synchronizations between mentioned brain areas.
