Study Details

We tested the hypothesis that brain potentials evoked by the onset of a weak, low-frequency magnetic field were nonlinearly related to the stimulus.

A field of 1 G, 60 Hz was applied for 2 s, with a 5 s inter-stimulus period, and brain potentials we...

All MEPs exhibited the expected latency but differed in dynamical characteristics, indicating that t...
