“…When a light stimulus is presented with the light intensity sinusoidally modulated, the result is called a steady state evoked response (SSER). Work done in this azea (Regan, 1975;Spekreijse, 1966;Wilson and O'Donnel, 1981;Wilson, 1979) suggests that the SSER may be a useful indicator of internal cortical functioning. Since a response can be obtained for single sine wave stimulus, we hypothesized that it would be possible to obtain an evoked response to light modulated by a sum of sine waves and, furziiermore, chat the response would reflect changes in cognitive processing.…”
