Significant age differences were revealed only at the level of single sweeps: (i) at the 3 mid-line locations (Fz, Cz, and Pz), middle-aged adults manifested theta phase-locking and enhancement which were significantly stronger than those in young adults; and (ii) in contrast, only over the frontal brain area were the alpha responses stronger in phase-locking and enhancement in the middle-aged than in young subjects. Thus, the analysis of frequency responses at the level of single sweeps enabled us to reveal age differences in simple auditory stimulus processing that were otherwise not detectable in the averaged potential.

The ERPs revealed a substantially smaller amplitude for the category matching than for non-matching pictures at the posterior brain regions, with greater activation of temporo-occipital brain regions changing from the right hemisphere at first to the left hemisphere later, as demonstrated by the current source density (CSD) maps. The ERPs elicited by the category of animal were larger than the vegetable category, similarly, the animal-animal matching condition elicited larger ERPs than did the vegetable-vegetable matching condition. In addition, the topographic distribution of the vegetable-elicited ERPs revealed additional involvement of the right frontal cortex which was absent in the topographic distribution of the animal-elicited ERPs. The spatial pattern of the VMP possesses features specific to semantic processing, and the ERPs differentiate the animal category from the vegetable category, suggesting an objective on-line method to investigate the category-specific information processing among brain-damaged patients.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100401,"journal":{"name":"Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology/Evoked Potentials Section","volume":"108 4","pages":"Pages 380-389"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S0168-5597(97)00103-2","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20630351","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
