Critical flicker frequency and EEG findings in patients with brain damage

Abstract
Average flicker frequencies were lower in 2 groups of brain-damaged patients without ocular involvement, than in either the young normal or elderly psychiatric control groups. Critical flicker frequency correlated positively with the frequency of the occipital basic pattern. No significant relationship was found between critical flicker and alpha frequencies in the normal control or psychiatric groups. A small group of the normal subjects with a low alpha incidence did not show a tendency to have low fusion frequencies. Cerebral responses to photic stimulation were not related to critical flicker frequencies.
