Reliability of functional connectivity of EEG applying microstates-segmented versus classical calculation of phase lag index (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Connectivity analysis characterizes normal and altered brain function, e.g. using the phase lag index (PLI), which is based on phase relations. However, reliability of PLI over time is lim
