摘要
A number of studies have examined the average late component Event Related Potential (ERP) and Reaction Time (RT) in response to multiple target stimuli (across-trial averages). This study demonstrates within-trial differences in ERP brain function associated with relatively fast and slow RTs in 50 normal subjects. A conventional auditory oddball paradigm (with a 1 ISI) a as employed. Increased ERP N100 and N200 amplitude (and decreased P200 amplitude), as well as earlier P200, N200 and P300 latency were found in the fast compared with the slow ERP subaverages. These results show the potential to elucidate temporal and spatial dynamics of brain function associated with changes in performance, in conventional "cognitive" paradigms applicable to both health and disease states.
