N400 and LPP in spontaneous trait inferences

Brain Research, 2011
Past 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.

Thirty Years and Counting: Finding Meaning in the N400 Component of the Event-Related Brain Potential (ERP)

open access: yesAnnual Review of Psychology, 2011
We review the discovery, characterization, and evolving use of the N400, an event-related brain potential response linked to meaning processing. We describe the elicitation of N400s by an impressive range of stimulus types—including written, spoken, and

Focusing on the N400: An exploration of selective attention during reading

Psychophysiology, 1994
AbstractIn 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 involvement in the processing of action sequences

Neuroscience Letters, 2008
Understanding 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 and category exemplar associative strength

International Journal of Psychophysiology, 2005
The 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 to Semantically Anomalous Pictures and Words

Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, 1992
Abstract 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 reflects problems of thematic hierarchizing

Neuroreport, 2001
Using 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, 2008
Measuring 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.

Before the N400: Effects of lexical–semantic violations in visual cortex

Brain and Language, 2011
There exists an increasing body of research demonstrating that language processing is aided by context-based predictions. Recent findings suggest that the brain generates estimates about the likely physical appearance of upcoming words based on syntactic predictions: words that do not physically look like the expected syntactic category show increased ...
