Guest guest Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 Hi Ian, Piping much for SPD? I will have rubber lips for sure! No, I meant what I wrote. Remember Pete said that at 9.7-9.8 people experience 'fogginess' or 'fuzziness'. Seems to me that 9.4-9.5 in an adult who doesn't otherwise exhibit age-related cognitive decline would produce even more dramatic symptoms. Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree with this. Jill Re: Low alpha Hi Jill - the low alpha peak frequencies don't seem all that low at9.5-9.7 Hz. Did you mean 8.5-8.7 ??

Guest guest Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 It depends very greatly on state of awakeness and possible sleepiness. A sleep deprived person whose normal dominant is 10.0 can easily show 8.5 after some days of little sleep, or chronic stress without recovery.
