Dillbeck & Araas-Vesely, 1986

Dillbeck, M. C.; and Araas-Vesely, S. Participation in the Transcendental Meditation Program and frontal EEG coherence during concept learning. International Journal of Neuroscience 29: 45–55, 1986.

Findings showed that participants in the Transcendental Meditation program displayed high frontal EEG coherence associated with more efficient performance on a cognitive task. They also responded to a cognitively challenging situation with greater physiological stability.
