Cognitive functions, including memory, perception, learning, attention, language abilities, problem solving, and decision making, are impaired in a range of neurodegenerative, neurodevelopmental, and neuropsychiatric diseases. Current therapeutic options are limited to the pharmacological and behavioral therapies. Neuromodulation therapies that target specific neural activities and brain areas require robust electrophysiological biomarkers that indicate cognitive performance in clinically validated tests. To identify specific cortical areas and spectral activities that indicate behavioral diff

There is an increasing amount of literature that relates the implication of the theta frequency band (4-8 Hz) in spatial memory processes. Moreover, this could be sexually dimorphic, with males and females exhibiting differential patterns during spatial demands, such as landmark encoding, or a differential strategic process, as shown in evoked related potentials (ERPs) studies. However, this has been little explored in complex, allocentric-based spatial memory tasks with frequency band analyses. Thus, this study explored electroencephalographic (EEG) activity in a sample of 40 participants, al
