SLOW CORTICAL POTENTIALS REFLECT THE REGULATION OF CORTICAL EXCITABILITY

A model is described which postulates ways in which regulatory circuits within the brain might generate electrical activity underlying spontaneous EEG fluctuations and event-related slow potentials (ERP) of the brain. We suggest that slow potentials represent a measure of the excitability of cortical neuronal networks and that this excitability must be regulated within distinct limits. The regulation has reflexive characteristics but must contain anticipatory elements as well.
