Changes in Neural Synchrony in Adolescence and Schizophrenia

Measure	Change During Adolescence	Effect in Schizophrenia
Resting-state oscillations	Reduction in the amplitude of delta and theta oscillations, while alpha oscillations increase. In addition, increased coherence in the alpha and beta band is observed.	Consistent support for increased delta and theta oscillations as well as for reduced alpha-band power. There is evidence for reduced coherence of resting-state oscillations.
Steady-state responses	Increases in the amplitude and peak frequency of auditory SSRs to stimulation at 40 Hz.	Robust reductions in both the amplitude and the phase locking of 40-Hz auditory SSRs.
Evoked oscillations	Increased phase locking of evoked alpha- and gamma-band oscillations during adolescence, possibly accompanied by reductions in the power of evoked oscillations.	Consistent evidence for deficits in phase locking of evoked oscillations in the alpha and gamma bands.
		Conflicting evidence in regard to abnormalities in the power of evoked oscillations.
Induced oscillations	Pronounced increases in power of induced theta- and gamma-band oscillations. These changes are characterized by increases in long-distance synchronization at low (delta, theta) and high (beta/gamma) frequencies.	Pronounced impairments in beta- and gamma-band phase synchrony as well as reduced theta- and gamma-band power.
