Predicting individual differences in behavioral activation and behavioral inhibition from functional networks in the resting EEG

Can the resting state peak alpha frequency explain the relationship between temporal resolution power and psychometric intelligence?

“…This change has been interpreted as increased cortical activation in the EO compared to the EC resting state (Anderson & Perone, 2018; Barry & De Blasio, 2017; Barry et al, 2007; Başar et al, 1999). Therefore, it has been suggested that the EC condition represents a “true” resting state, whereas PAF in the EO condition reflects task-relevant preparatory processes or pretask activation (Anderson & Perone, 2018, 2023; Angelakis, Lubar, & Stathopoulou, 2004; Angelakis, Lubar, Stathopoulou, & Kounios, 2004; Barry et al, 2007; Ben-Simon et al, 2008; Jann et al, 2010; Mahjoory et al, 2019). Proceeding from this assumption, our results indicate that the relation between PAF and psychometric intelligence necessitates at least a minimum of attentional activation during the measurement of PAF as in the EO condition.…”

Behavioral Activation and Brain Network Changes in Depression

“…Therefore, the pretreatment level of prefrontal alpha asymmetry may serve as a predictor of treatment response and relapse. Additionally, an analysis of resting EEG data by Anderson and Perone 143 identified functional networks associated with the BAS and BIS, 69 which are brain systems that regulate motivation, approach behavior, reward-seeking, and positive affect. 144 That study revealed that the BAS and BIS are associated with different brain networks, with differences in the strengths of these networks potentially accounting for individual differences, particularly in the specific frequency bands (theta and beta) associated with the BAS subscales.…”

Relations of behavioral inhibition and activation system sensitivities with vaccination outcomes: Investigating the mediating role of vaccine hesitancy in older adults

“…

Human affect, cognition, and behavior are governed by two relatively orthogonal neurobiological systems, the behavioral inhibition system (BIS) and the behavioral activation system (BAS) (Carver and Scheier, 2001;Carver and White, 1994;Gable et al, 2000;Heubeck et al, 1998). These two systems are associated with differing cognitive structures, each activating when encountering specific stimuli to guide reactions and responses (Amodio et al, 2008;Anderson and Perone, 2023;Coan and Allen, 2003). The BIS is associated with punishments and nonrewards, whereas the BAS is associated with rewards and nonpunishments.
