P50, N100, and P200 sensory gating: Relationships with behavioral inhibition, attention, and working memory
Open accessAbstract
P50, N100, and P200 auditory sensory gating could reflect mechanisms involved in protecting higher‐order cognitive functions, suggesting relationships between sensory gating and cognition. This hypothesis was tested in 56 healthy adults who were administered the paired‐click paradigm and two adaptations of the continuous performance test (Immediate/Delayed Memory Task, IMT/DMT). Stronger P50 gating correlated with fewer commission errors and prolonged reaction times on the DMT. Stronger N100 and P200 gating correlated with better discriminability on the DMT. Finally, prolonged P200 latency related to better discriminability on the IMT. These findings suggest that P50, N100, and P200 gating could be involved in protecting cognition by affecting response bias, behavioral inhibition, working memory, or attention.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
The source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.
In the citing paper
“For example, studies in healthy participants have reported that P50 gating can relate to response inhibition or Stroop interference, but these associations differ across cognitive tasks and may depend on perceptual load, response strategy, and task modality rather than on a single general inhibitory mechanism [97,172].”
From Electrophysiological Correlates of Cognitive Dysfunction in Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD): A Systematic and Mechanistic Review of EEG, ERP, and QEEG Evidence (2026) · cites this paper as [97]
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“Work on PPI and P50/N100/P200 gating suggests that early sensory and sensorimotor gating can protect higher-order cognition by reducing interference from irrelevant or redundant stimulation, thereby supporting attention, response bias, and working-memory operations [97,140,141,142].”
The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“This distinction is important because P50 suppression is usually interpreted as a pre-attentive inhibitory mechanism that reduces the neural impact of repetitive or irrelevant input before it reaches later attentional and executive systems [97,163,164,165].”
The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“This interpretation is consistent with broader work showing that relationships between P50 gating and cognition are inconsistent and task-dependent.”

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.
