Event-related potentials and auditory sensory memoryObjective: Deficits in auditory short-term memory are thought to underlie developmental language disorders and dyslexia. There is, however, a lack of systematic studies of short-term memory in children ...
Abstract The mismatch negativity (MMN) is thought to indicate automatic stimulus discrimination in response to acoustic stimuli. In the present study six male subjects were presented with the odors linalool and eugenol within a passive oddball-paradigm. ...
In the present article, I will selectively review some of the recent research on the brain substrates of central-auditory processing using the mismatch negativity (MMN) and its magnetoencephalographic equivalent MMNm, trying to identify some of the most ...
Abstract. High-sensation seekers are prone to search for changing stimuli. Pre-attentive processes reveal the earliest cortical change detection in response to external stimulus changes. This study recorded the mismatch negativity (MMN) to ...
Abstract. The present study investigates bottom-up effects serving the optimal balance between focusing attention on relevant information and distractibility by potentially significant events outside the focus of attention. We tested whether distraction, ...
Abstract. Everyday experience tells us that some types of auditory sensory information are retained for long periods of time. For example, we are able to recognize friends by their voice alone or identify the source of familiar noises even years after we ...
