Humans evolve in a complex environment. At each moment of a day, the brain processes a lot of information allowing us to make decisions. Information to consider can be external, i.e., from the environment and transmitted to the brain through our senses, or internal. Whether we focus on external or internal information, ignoring irrelevant information might be as important as optimizing the processing of relevant information. The main goal of this thesis was to determine the neural mechanism underlying this process. Alpha oscillations (7-14Hz) have been proposed to be associated with functional inhibition and as such to implement the suppression of the processing of irrelevant information. However, there is a debate in the literature and th...
