Dillbeck et al., 1981

Dillbeck, M. C.; Orme-Johnson, D. W.; and Wallace, R. K. Frontal EEG coherence, H-reflex recovery, concept learning, and the TM-Sidhi Program. International Journal of Neuroscience 15: 151–157, 1981.

Frontal EEG coherence and H-reflex recovery were found to be correlated with flexibility of concept learning in subjects practicing the Transcendental Meditation technique. Instruction in the TM-Sidhi program was seen to improve efficiency on a concept-learning task.

    TM-Sidhi program · Longitudinal with nonrandomized controls · TM-Sidhi

Electroencephalographic

  • Greater Flexibility of Concept Learning Correlated with High Frontal EEG Alpha and Theta Coherence during the Transcendental Meditation technique, and with Greater Neurological Efficiency (Faster H-Reflex Recovery)
