Behavioral psychophysiological intervention in a mentally retarded epileptic patient with brain lesion.

abstract：:The discovery of electroencephalography (EEG) over a century ago has changed the way we understand brain structure and function, in terms of both clinical and research applications. This paper starts with a short description of EEG and then focuses on the event-related brain potentials (ERPs), and their use in experim...
