Higher integration of the whole-brain resting state theta band network is associated with spatial working memory.

ABSTRACT: The aim of the present study was to investigate the association between resting-state EEG functional connectivity and spatial working memory (SWM) in adolescents, using a graph-theoretical approach. Sixty-three healthy adolescents (38 females; M = 16.8, SD = 0.47) participated in the study. Resting-state EEG was recorded by a wireless dry-sensor 32-channel headset (Cognionics Quick-32r) configured in a standard 10-20 montage. Graph metrics were calculated in alpha, theta, beta-low and beta-high frequency bands, using connection-strength thresholds of 50 and 80%. SWM performance was measured with the computerized Corsi Block-Tapping Task (CBT). Robust bootstrapped linear regressions revealed significant associations between graph metrics and CBT accuracy only for theta and beta-low f
