Not a classical operant conditioning

Brain provided a window on functioning

Helping the brain achieve a still point-most calm/most alert

Moves the brain toward self-regulation

Maybe addressing the basic timing mechanism of Thalamo-cortical networks

Not simply rewarding an increase in amplitude

Providing data on a ratio of amplitude increase and decrease

This data reflects the relative phase of this slow moving signal

Research suggests that the phase of the ILF signal reflects the excitability cycle of higher frequencies
