ERP evidence for the influence of scene context on the recognition of ambiguous and unambiguous objects
2015, NeuropsychologiaCitation Excerpt :Without contextual information, guesses depend solely on how recognizable the object is. The brain responses thought to reflect those guesses, or what Stuss et al. (1992) called the generation of hypotheses of an object's identity, are reflected by more negative ERPs in time windows of 250–350 ms and 350–450 ms (Doniger et al., 2001; Stuss et al., 1992). This effect was demonstrated by using fragmented images that, at a certain level of fragmentation, became unrecognizable.
The interaction between surface color and color knowledge: Behavioral and electrophysiological evidence
2012, Brain and CognitionCitation Excerpt :An additional effect, which reflects semantic knowledge integration and/or retrieval is the N400 effect, which was initially related to words that are semantically unrelated or unusual in a given semantic sentence context (Kutas & Hillyard, 1980a, 1980b). The N400 component is characterized by a negativity peaking around 400 ms after stimulus onset (Barrett & Rugg, 1990; Ganis, Kutas, & Sereno, 1996; Hamm, Johnson, & Kirk, 2002; Holcomb & McPherson, 1994; McPherson & Holcomb, 1999; Nigam, Hoffman, & Simons, 1992; Pietrowsky et al., 1996; Pratarelli, 1994; Stuss et al., 1992) and was first described for pictures by Barrett and Rugg (1990). Barrett and Rugg (1990) reported that pictures that were semantically unrelated to a previous priming stimulus elicit a greater negative ERP component around 400 ms after stimulus onset, as compared to pictures that were semantically related to a previous primer.
The influence of contour fragmentation on recognition memory: An event-related potential study
2011, Brain and CognitionCitation Excerpt :Taking a different approach, Viggiano and Kutas (1998), Viggiano and Kutas (2000) compared the ERPs evoked at the identification level with those at one higher level with more fragments added to the stimulus. Consistent with the results of Stuss and colleagues (Stuss et al., 1992), the amplitude was more negative for the identification level, thus for the most fragmented level. The authors mentioned that this effect was restricted to posterior sites, but the electrodes, as well as the latencies, were not specified more precisely.
