Fig. 3. Scopolamine disrupts the phase reset of theta oscillations.

Fig. 3

a 5-Hz-filtered EEG from an example hippocampal electrode from subject 12 for selected trials. Unlike the placebo condition, the 5-Hz-filtered oscillations in the scopolamine condition do not show phase alignment across trials. b Top: Inter-trial phase coherence (ITPC, or phase reset) during encoding for the same example electrode for the placebo and scopolamine conditions (0 ms denotes time of encoding cue). The increase in 5-Hz theta phase reset seen during the placebo session is not present during the scopolamine session. Magenta dashed lines indicate peak in ITPC between 0–300 ms for the placebo condition. Bottom: circular histograms showing phase distributions at the peak in ITPC following encoding cue for placebo (blue) and scopolamine (red). c Left: group-level mean phase reset across all hippocampal formation electrodes for the placebo and scopolamine conditions. Right: group-level mean change in phase reset between placebo and scopolamine. Black outline indicates significant clusters of change in phase reset (n = 69, p < 0.05, cluster-based permutation test, multiple-comparison corrected). Source data are provided as a source data file.
