Frontal Brain Oscillatory Coupling in Children of Parents With Social Phobia: A Pilot Study

Abstract

Spectral coupling between delta and beta oscillations has been related to anxiety. The authors provide preliminary evidence that frontal brain oscillatory coupling discriminates children born to socially phobic versus healthy parents, despite there being no difference in parental perceptions of their children's shyness.
