Abstract :
Humans´ ability to maintain constant level of performance in low-arousal task environments is limited. This paper shows that characteristic multi-minute and 15-20 sec fluctuations in the EEG spectrum accompanying fluctuations in behavioral alertness can be used to estimate or predict individual responses in an auditory detection task
