It is known that Temporal Information Processing (TIP) underpins our cognitive functioning. Previous research has focused on the relationship between TIP efficiency and oscillatory brain activity, especially the gamma rhythm; however, non-oscillatory (aperiodic or 1/f) brain activity has often been missed. Recent studies have identified the 1/f component as being important for the functioning of the brain. Therefore, the current study aimed to verify whether TIP efficiency is associated with specific EEG resting state cortical activity patterns, including oscillatory and non-oscillatory (aperiodic) brain activities. To measure individual TIP efficiency, we used two behavioral tasks in which the participant judges the order of two sounds separated by millisecond intervals. Based on the above procedure, participants were classified into two groups with high and low TIP efficiency. Using cluster-based permutation analyses, we examined between-group differences in oscillatory and non-oscillatory (aperiodic) components across the 1–90 Hz range. The results revealed that the groups differed in the aperiodic component across the 30–80 Hz range in fronto-central topography. In other words, participants with low TIP efficiency exhibited higher levels of aperiodic activity, and thus a flatter frequency spectrum compared to those with high TIP efficiency. We conclude that participants with low TIP efficiency display higher levels of ‘neural noise’, which is associated with poorer quality and speed of neural processing. |
