Evoked Potentials during Language Processing as Neurophysiological Phenomena
The evoked, event-related potential of the EEG has been extensively employed to study language processing. But what is the ERP? An extensive discussion of contemporary theories about the neurophysiology underlying late ERPs is given. Then, in a series of experiments, domain-general perspectives on E...

Izvleček: | The evoked, event-related potential of the EEG has been extensively employed to study language processing. But what is the ERP? An extensive discussion of contemporary theories about the neurophysiology underlying late ERPs is given. Then, in a series of experiments, domain-general perspectives on ERP components are tested regarding their applicability for language-related brain activity. A range of analysis methods (some of which have not been previously applied to the study of auditory sentence processing) such as single-trial analyses and independent component decomposition, demonstrate the degree to which domain general mechanisms explain the language-related EEG. |
