[Eeglablist] "Subtract individual subject mean spectrum"--- What does this option do??

[arno delorme]

Dear Jain,

the "subtract mean individual spectrum" option subtracts the mean  
spectrum (all channels) from the spectrum of each of the channel. This  
can be useful because most often spectrum values cary widely across  
subjects. Using this trick only the spectrum variation across the mean  
for each subject is visualized.

Hope this helps,

Arno
