“…For example, Smit, Linkenkaer-Hansen and de Geus (2013) identify EOR PLE maxima in the central midline (0.20-0.40) whilst Muthukumaraswamy and Liley (2018) use IRASA to account for knees in the spectra by modelling multiple slopes, identifying global AE of 1.36 (β 1 :0.1-2.5Hz, frontal maxima) and 1.48 (β 2 :20-100Hz, central maxima) respectively. AE studies cluster between 1.30-1.60, similar to the range described by Merkin et al ., (2023), irrespective of whether FOOOF (Donoghue et al ., 2020; Pathania et al ., 2021, 2022; Zsido et al ., 2022; Cross et al ., 2022), IRASA (Muthukumaraswamy and Liley, 2018) or other methods (Barry and De Blasio, 2021) are utilised, and with similar patterns for ECR and EOR, though ECR AE remains higher. Two exceptions to this are noted (Ke et al ., 2022; Immink et al ., 2021), with one of these (Immink et al ., 2021) identifying ECR AE estimates falling within the tentative infant AE range (>2.00).…”
