Spanish term or phrase: Arrastre (EEG)
Hello everyone,

I'm translating an EEG/Brain Mapping report (SP/MX > EN/US) and this particular use of "arrastre" is new to me. Here it is in context:

Respuesta a la estimulación auditiva: No hubo arrastre.

I am currently using "pulling" as "dragging" doesn't seem to apply here, but I don't feel very confident with "pulling" and can't seem to find a definition for this use of "arrastre" in the context of responses to auditory stimulation. Any ideas are greatly welcome.

Thanks in advance!

Paul

Durante los anos 60 y 70 el neurocientifico Robert Monroe en su pequeno laboratorio de Virginia, USA, estudio el efecto de los sonidos en el cerebro y descubrio que podia producir realmente una transmision o "arrastre" de ondas cerebrales para frecuencias menores a 30 Hz.. Asi Monroe patento y postulo en 1975 que el cerebro resuena cuando se lo bombardea con ondas sonoras ritmicas y lo denomino "FFR" (Respuesta de seguimiento de frecuencias) similar al de arrastre fotico ya mencionado.

Light and Sound machines work by “entraining” your “brain waves”. In the 1930’s and 40’s, researchers discovered that strobing lights repetitively while someone watches (photic driving) caused the brain waves to follow and eventually adapt to the same frequency. This is called the frequency following response or “entraining”. Today’s mind machines have LED’s in a pair of goggles that flash or pulse at predetermined frequencies you can select (from 1-40 Hz, or cycles per second, generally). The LED’s come in many different colors and each color is said to produce different experiences.

Brainwave entrainment was first identified in 1934, although its effects had been noted as early as Ptolemy.
Not long after the discovery of the Alpha brainwave by Hans Berger in 1929, researchers found that the strength of the wave could be "driven" beyond its natural frequency using flickering lights. This is called "Photic Driving", which is another word for brainwave entrainment using photic (light) stimulation. In 1942 Dempsey and Morison discovered that repetitive tactile stimulation could also produce entrainment and in 1959, Dr. Chatrian observed auditory entrainment in response to clicks at a frequency of 15 per second.
By the 1960s entrainment started to become a tool rather than a phenomenon of the brain. Anesthesiologist M.S. Sadove, MD, used photic stimulation to reduce the amount of anesthesia needed for surgery. Bernard Margolis published an article on brainwave entrainment used during dental procedures, noting less anesthesia required, less gagging, less bleeding and a general reduction in anxiety.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thanks for your help, Gene. I think "driving" is more applicable here in terms of an EEG, though I agree with your point about "photic" in terms of auditory stimulation. Cheers! Paul

  -> Liz, what makes "photic" so appealing to you? The text says it was auditory.
