Fig. 5 - Comparisons between the <strong>Brain</strong>Master <strong>and</strong> Lexicor implementation of the<br />

spectral correlation method. The correlation values are all very high due to the low<br />

degrees of freedom <strong>and</strong> miss-match of calculation occurs at the higher frequencies<br />

depending on the filter parameters (From Collura, 2006).<br />

LORETA source correlations are another example of the application<br />

of the Pearson product correlation coefficient (Thatcher et al, 2006). Below<br />

are examples of the relationship between cortico-cortical connectivity <strong>and</strong><br />

distance from a point source using LORETA current sources <strong>and</strong> the Pearson<br />

product correlation coefficient (PCC) as applied to sequential epochs of<br />

time. The degrees of freedom ranged from 29 to 60 in which a correlation<br />

of 0.367 to 0.254 is necessary for P < .05. This analysis is a cross-frequency<br />

correlation as well as a cross-region of interest correlation. The time series<br />

analyses of cross-channel <strong>and</strong> cross-frequency coherence <strong>and</strong> phase<br />

synchrony is discussed in sections 25 to 39.
