Neuronal Activation Pattern Associated with Retrieval Effort During Episodic Memory RetrievalAbstract: Semantic relatedness among items is a powerful means by which interference effects can be evoked. Control of semantic interference involves executive ...
Audiovisual Speech Perception in Patients with Cochlea ImplantationAbstract: Through electrical stimulation by means of implanted electrodes within the cochlea (Cochlea implant: CI) deafened patients can re-establish the ability of speech perception. ...
Validation of a method for assessing cardiac sensitivity and new findings on the functional significance of heartbeat-evoked potentialsAbstract. Bodily perception is becoming increasingly important to ...
The significance of functional psychophysiological methods in child and adolescent psychiatryPsychophysiological research focusing on child development and on child and adolescent psychiatric disorders has provided many important insights. The use of ...
Abstract In this study the influence of caffeine as an energy-increasing substance on visual information processing was examined. Subjects were presented with a dual-task consisting of two choice reaction time tasks. In addition, one of the tasks was ...
Abstract Previous investigations of how ERP repetition effects are modulated by stimulus content have typically used words or non-words as stimuli. The extent to which these findings can be generalized to pictorial stimuli was examined in the present ...
Abstract The late part of the Contingent Negative Variation (CNV) is assumed to be a composite potential, reflecting both movement preparation and several other processes. To assess the contribution of hand-motor preparation to overall CNV, three S1-S2 ...
Changes in genetic and environmental influences on electroencephalographic (EEG) and event-related potential (ERP) indices of neural development were studied in two large cohorts of young (N = 418) and adolescent (N = 426) twins. Individual differences in ...
Abstract This study investigates whether LORETA, a method of source localization of EEG data, reveals replicable and valid sources of event-related potentials (ERPs), which are supposed to be generated in a widespread cortical network. For that purpose, ...
Abstract: The aim of the present study was to search for event-related potential (ERP) correlates of processing pictures commonly described as “funny” but not preceded by the apparent “context-setting” phase. Three pairs of stimuli were used: (1) famous ...
Abstract. This paper presents a new methodology for studying cognition, which combines eye movements (EM) and event-related potentials (ERP) to track the cognitive processes that occur during a single eye fixation. This technique, called eye-fixation-...
Abstract: We investigated performance monitoring of a group of healthy normal subjects in a delay of gratification paradigm. Focusing on response-locked event-related brain potentials we observed an Ne-Pe-like complex in all conditions. While there was no ...
Abstract. In this study we analyze whether facial expression recognition is marked by specific event-related potential (ERP) correlates and whether conscious and unconscious elaboration of emotional facial stimuli are qualitatively different processes. ...
The functional properties of the auditory sensory memory have been extensively studied using the mismatch negativity (MMN) component of the auditory event-related potential (ERP) and its magnetic counterpart recorded using magneto-encephalography (MEG). ...
This investigation covered the disgust and fear reactivity of patients suffering from spider phobia. We analyzed event-related brain potentials and affective responses to pictures depicting spiders, as well as generally fear-inducing, disgust-inducing, ...
Changes between two successively presented pictures are hard to detect when their presentation is interrupted by a blank (change blindness). This task is well established for investigating the neural correlates of visual awareness. It allows the ...
We compared ADHD-related temporal processing and response inhibition deficits in children and adults using event-related potentials (ERPs) during cued continuous performance tasks (CPT, O-X-version, plus a more demanding flanker version). ERP markers of ...
Spatial selection of relevant information has been proposed to reflect an emergent feature of stimulus processing within an integrated network of perceptual areas. Stimulus-based and intention-based sources of information might converge in a common stage ...
