Interhemispheric EEG coherence during photic stimulation: sex differences in normal young adults.
International Journal of Psychophysiology 1996 April
The present study was conducted to examine sex differences in interhemispheric EEG coherence in 15 male and 15 female healthy young adults. EEG was recorded during rest and photic stimulation (PS) at 5, 10 and 15 Hz using a linked earlobe reference. Interhemispheric coherence of the resting EEG revealed no significant sex-related differences for any frequency band. In contrast, significant sex-related differences were found in EEG coherence during PS; the females had a significantly higher coherence than the males for F3-F4 and C3-C4 in the frequency band (4.5-5.5 Hz) corresponding to 5 Hz PS. In addition, the changes in interhemispheric coherence from rest to the stimulus condition (i.e. PS-related coherence reactivity) showed sex-related differences at the brain region primarily involved in visual functioning; the females had significantly greater coherence reactivity for O1-O2 in EEG during PS at 5 and 15 Hz. These findings indicate sex-related differences in interhemispheric EEG coherence during PS, and support the well-demonstrated evidence that sex differences exist in the degree of lateralization of cerebral function.
