    Figure 1.

    a, b, Top, ERF waveforms averaged across a cluster of sensors at left anterior locations (a) and left superior–posterior locations (b). Bottom, Mean signal strength measures (in femtoteslas) for the 300–500 ms poststimulus period at left anterior locations (a) and for the 500–800 ms period at left superior-posterior locations (b).

    Figure 2.

    Scalp maps showing distributions of ERF activity for the 300–500 and 500–800 ms poststimulus epochs. The maps were computed based on values obtained by subtracting mean signal strengths associated with correct rejections from three kinds of Remember/Know response. Top, Remember responses to words subjected to deep encoding. Middle, Remember responses to words subjected to shallow encoding. Bottom, Know responses to words subjected to shallow encoding.
