•Gamma EEG waves were stable across two measurements, theta waves were not stable.•Theta/gamma ratio measured during rest is not correlated with performance in digit span task.•Theta/gamma ratio is not stable across two measurements in one individual Several studies suggest that EEG parameters, refl...
