The N400 and the P300 are not all that independent
Psychophysiology, 2010AbstractThis study assessed whether two ERP components that are elicited by unexpected events interact. The conditions that are known to elicit the N400 and the P300 ERP components were applied separately and in combination to terminal‐words in sentences.

N400 and LPP in spontaneous trait inferences
Brain Research, 2011Past research on spontaneous trait inferences using event related potentials (ERPs) has consistently reported increased late positive potential (LPP) amplitudes following social expectancy violations, but no N400 modulation. In the present study, participants read scenarios describing behaviors of unknown actors.

Focusing on the N400: An exploration of selective attention during reading
Psychophysiology, 1994AbstractIn a series of two experiments, subjects read sentences wherein words were flanked in the lower visual field by irrelevant words (i.e., flankers). The visual angle between the words in the sentence and the flanker words was manipulated (i.e., 0.57°, 0.97°, 1.37°).

N400 and category exemplar associative strength
International Journal of Psychophysiology, 2005The main purpose of this study was to examine if the N400 amplitude can be considered an index of category exemplar strength of association in a semantic categorization task. Series of six words from a particular semantic category were used as context, and the strength of association between the seventh word and the category was manipulated.

N400 involvement in the processing of action sequences
Neuroscience Letters, 2008Understanding others' sequences of action is a fundamental aspect of human movement and is the key to detecting goal directed behavior and intentional actions. Human action contains semantic information whereby logical chains of events are entirely dependent on the sequence in which they are performed.

N400 to Semantically Anomalous Pictures and Words
Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, 1992Abstract The N400 component of the human event-related brain potential appears to be related to violations of semantic expectancy during language comprehension. The present experiment investigated whether the N400 is related specifically to activity in a language system or is an index of a conceptual system that is accessed by both ...

The N400 and Post-N400 positivity effect in Mandarin classifier-noun congruence: An ERP study
Journal of Neurolinguistics, 2021Abstract The current study employed electrophysiological measures to investigate semantic processing within a local classifier-noun phrase in Chinese. Toward this aim, semantic congruence between classifiers and nouns was manipulated, resulting in four conditions: (i) a strong-constraint/high-cloze plausible (SP) condition, (ii) a weak-constraint/low-

The N400 reflects problems of thematic hierarchizing
Neuroreport, 2001Using event-related potentials (ERPs), we present evidence that the current interpretation of the N400 component must be extended. This component is elicited in incorrect German sentences with two grammatical subjects, thereby showing its sensitivity to thematic relations between arguments in a sentence (who is doing what to whom).

A cortical network for semantics: (de)constructing the N400
Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2008Measuring event-related potentials (ERPs) has been fundamental to our understanding of how language is encoded in the brain. One particular ERP response, the N400 response, has been especially influential as an index of lexical and semantic processing. However, there remains a lack of consensus on the interpretation of this component.
