Abstract
Do brain oscillations limit the temporal dynamics of experience? This pre-registered study used the separation of auditory stimuli to track perceptual experience and related this to oscillatory activity using magnetoencephalography. The rates at which auditory stimuli could be individuated matched the rates of oscillatory brain activity. Stimuli also entrained brain activity at the frequencies at which they were presented and a progression of high frequency gamma band events appeared to predict successful separation. These findings support a generalised function for brain oscillations, across frequency bands, in the alignment of activity to delineate representations.
