Regional electroencephalographic asymmetries in bipolar seasonal affective disorder before and after exposure to bright light

J J Allen et al. Biol Psychiatry. 1993.

Abstract

Electroencephalographic (EEG) asymmetries found in nonseasonal depression were examined in seasonal affective disorder before and after bright-light exposure. Subjects with seasonal depression demonstrated the expected pattern of frontal asymmetry both when depressed and following light-induced remission. Right-hemisphere EEG coherence, by contrast, served as a state-dependent indicator of seasonal depression.
