The basic mechanisms underlying these patterns are complex and involve part of the cerebral cortex, the thalamocortical network, and intrinsic neuronal mechanisms.
22.
The contrasts in the different temperaments come from individuals variations in a person's brain stem, limbic system, and thalamocortical arousal system.
23.
In this model, metastable interactions in the thalamocortical region cause a process of selectionism through natally whereby neuronal connections are influenced by environmental experiences.
24.
Melancholics also had the highest overall thalamocortical excitation, whereas cholerics ( those with high extraversion and high neuroticism ) had the lowest intrinsic thalamocortical excitation.

26.
Edelman elaborates on the dynamic core hypothesis ( DCH ), which describes the thalamocortical region-the region believed to be the integration center of consciousness.
27.
Magnetoencephalography ( MEG ) has been used to show that during conscious perception, gamma-band frequency electrical activity and thalamocortical resonance prominently occurs in the human brain.
28.
Another possible initiation pattern tested in rats suggested the thalamocortical ( TC ) loop is involved in the initiation of spike-and-wave oscillations under certain conditions.
29.
They have a " tufted " ( or radiate ) morphology, as their axonal collaterals, which implies that one emitting thalamocortical neuron does not send information to its neighbor.
30.
Thalamocortical oscillation involves the synchronous firing of thalamic and cortical neurons at specific frequencies; in the thalamocortical system, the exact frequencies depend on current brain state and mental activity.
