Previous behavioral studies have shown that instructions about S-R mappings can influence task performance even when these instructions are irrelevant for the current task. In the present study, we tested whether automatic effects of S-R instructions occur because the instructed stimuli automatically activate their corresponding responses. We registered the lateralized readiness potentials (LRP...

A new `Wavelet Energeti s' te hnique, based on `best-shift' orthonormal wavelet analysis (OWA) of a given instantaneous synopti map, is onstru ted for diagnosing nonlinear kineti -energeti transfers in observed blo king ases. Best-shift analysis represents longitudinal varian e of latitude-mean blo king stru tures at 50 kPa mu h more eÆ iently than does standard OWA, even for stru tures evolvin...

A reliable and valid neurophysiological index of error-monitoring ability is an eventrelated potential (ERP) known as “error-related negativity” (ERN), which is evoked following an error response. Individuals with schizophrenia show error monitoring deficits accompanied by reduced ERN. Error monitoring is mediated in part by the medial-frontal cortex, which has been shown to be abnormal in schi...
