“…Theta (∼4-7Hz) oscillatory power during REM sleep has been linked to emotional memory processing during sleep in some studies (Kim et al, 2019; Marquis et al, 2017; Nishida et al, 2009; Schäfer et al, 2020; Sopp et al, 2017), though this association has not been found (Davidson et al, 2021). Theta power has been shown to be elevated in trauma-exposed individuals who were resilient to, compared to those diagnosed with, PTSD (Cowdin et al, 2014; though see Denis et al, 2021). Similarly, electroencephalographic spectral power in in the beta frequency range (∼20-30Hz) during sleep has also been shown to be elevated in PTSD compared to those without PTSD (de Boer et al, 2020; Germain et al, 2006; Wang et al, 2020; Woodward et al, 2000), and has been theorized as a marker of hyperarousal (Hall et al, 2007; Krystal et al, 2002; Perlis et al, 2001; Riedner et al, 2016; Spiegelhalder et al, 2012).…”
