Figure 7.

The posterior dominant alpha rhythm. The normal background EEG during wakefulness contains posteriorly dominant, symmetrical, and reactive alpha rhythm. Alpha activity is more prominent in amplitude during relaxed, eyes-closed wakefulness and demonstrates reactivity by decreasing in amplitude and presence during eye opening and mental alerting.
