چکیده

Event-related potentials were recorded from sleeping newborns to compare amplitudes and latencies of mismatch negativity (MMN) and late discriminative negativity (LDN) in active and quiet sleep stages. MMN and LDN were obtained in response to changes in semi-synthesized vowels from 20 healthy newborn infants. MMN and LDN responses were significant for both active and quiet sleep. The amplitude and latency of MMN or LDN did not differ between the sleep stages. Thus, in contrast to adult studies that show a significant drop in the MMN amplitude and an increase in the MMN latency as the sleep gets deeper, arousal stages do not seem to effect either MMN or LDN characteristics in newborns. These results suggest functional differences between infant and adult sleep.

Developmental Changes in Mismatch Responses to Mandarin Consonants and Lexical Tones from Early to Middle Childhood

The purpose of this study was to use mismatch responses (MMRs) to explore the dynamic changes of Mandarin speech perception abilities from early to middle childhood. Twenty preschoolers, 18 school-aged children, and 26 adults participated in this study. Two sets of synthesized speech stimuli varying in Mandarin consonant (alveolo-palatal affricate vs. fricative) and lexical tone features (risin...

[Late negativity in visual event-related potentials in humans to changes in topology of simple nonverbal stimuli].

Late negativity arising in ERP in response to a semantic mismatch of consistently presented stimuli is usually considered to be related with verbal or symbolic representation of stimulus during perception. It is shown in this work that the late negativity typical of the semantic mismatch develops even in the context of non-symbolic and nonverbal, for example, four-point stimulus compositions wh...

Effects of Blocking D2/D3 Receptors on Mismatch Negativity and P3a Amplitude of Initially Antipsychotic Naïve, First Episode Schizophrenia Patients

BACKGROUND Reduced mismatch negativity and P3a amplitude have been suggested to be among the core deficits in schizophrenia since the late 1970s. Blockade of dopamine D2 receptors play an important role in the treatment of schizophrenia. In addition, there is some evidence indicating that deficits in mismatch negativity and P3a amplitude are related to increased dopaminergic activity. This is t...

Thermal negativity in a two qubit XXX and XX spin chain model in an external magnetic field

In this paper we studied the thermal negativity in a two-qubit XX spin ½ chain model and XXX spin1/2 chain model(isotropic Heisenberg model)spin-1/2 chain subjected to an external magnetic field inz direction. We calculate analytical relation for the thermal negativity for two qubit XX and XXX spinchain models in the external magnetic field. Effects of the magnetic field and temperature on then...

Sound perception affected by nonlinear variation of accuracy in memory trace.

The mismatch negativity (MMN) reflects the neural representation of the acoustic environment stored in sensory memory. The short phase of sensory memory corresponds to the temporal window of integration (TWI) which integrates the neighboring sounds into a unitary event. We measured the magnetic MMN (MMNm) and the discriminative reaction time (RT) responding to an omitted segment incorporated in...
