Parsing the late positive complex: Mental chronometry and the ERP components that inhabit the neighborhood of the P300

Dien, Joseph, Spencer, Kevin M., Donchin, Emanuel·2004·Psychophysiology

Abstract

Falkenstein, Hohnsbein, and Hoorman (1994) suggested that common measures of P300 latency confound a “P‐SR” component whose latency corresponds to stimulus evaluation time and a “P‐CR” component whose latency varies with response‐selection time, thus casting doubt on work in mental chronometry that relies on P300 latency. We report here a replication and extension of Falkenstein et al. (1994) using a high‐density 129‐electrode montage with 11 subjects. Spatiotemporal PCA was used to extract the components of the ERP. A centroid measure is also introduced for detecting waveform‐timing changes beyond just peak latency. In terms of componentry, we argue that the P‐SR and the P‐CR, correspond to the P3a/Novelty P3 and the P300, respectively. Conceptually, we dispute the proposed distinction between stimulus evaluation and response selection. We suggest a four‐stage ERP model of information processing and place the P3a and the P300 in this framework.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
