The intention interval recording displays bursts of rhythmic activity in the 7.5 to 8 Hz.range with associated harmonics (waves at mathematical multiples of the primary frequency) and nested rhythms (the modulation of one frequency by another, even in the absence of a mathematical harmonic per se) expressed in short periods of peaking energy at a number of electrode sites, with the primary frequency of the harmonics being 7.81 Hz. This phenomenon, which emerges from what is referred to as a bispectral analysis, is not present in the baseline condition.
