Abstract

We studied the occipital inter-hemispheric coherence of Electroencephalogram (electrodes O1-O2) for alpha band (alpha1--8.0 to 10.0 Hz and alpha2--10.1 to 12.5 Hz) in two groups of healthy individuals (young adults and subjects older than 50 years-old), to assess if there is significant difference between this two age groups. No significant difference in alpha band coherences was found between these two age groups.
