Abstract

Electroencephalography (EEG) is a highly sensitive method of detecting alterations of brain function. It was, in fact, the first technique of biological measurement with which conscious human thought processes, such as mental calculation, could be detected. EEG became well established in clinical use shortly after its introduction, primarily as a diagnostic tool in neurology, but the early hope that it would provide a better knowledge of the physiology and pathophysiology of mental processes remained unfulfilled for many years. Only later, with the advent of computer technology, could event-related potentials (ERP), frequency spectra, and reconstructions of cerebral electric fields begin to be studied. The use of these neurophysiologic methods has yielded major insights into higher brain function, e.g. regarding the chronology of sensory perception and of decision processes. The physiologic background of these modern methods of analysis in psychiatric neurophysiology will be briefly discussed in what follows.
