There is considerable variability in the quantification of event-related potential (ERP) amplitudes and latencies. We examined susceptibility ERP measures to incremental increases background noise through published data simulations. Measures included mean amplitude, adaptive mean, peak latency, centroid latency. Results indicated amplitude was most robust against noise. The measure more biased, but represented an efficient estimator true signal particularly for individual-subject latency...
Methodological reporting guidelines for studies of ERPs were updated in Psychophysiology 2014. These facilitate the communication key methodological parameters (e.g., preprocessing steps). Failing to report represents a barrier replication efforts, and difficulty with replicability increases presence small sample sizes low statistical power. We assessed whether are followed estimated average size power recent research. Reporting behavior, sizes, designs coded 150 randomly sampled articles...
Abstract Psychometric studies of the ERN , CRN Pe, and Pc ERPs are increasing. Coherent integration these results is difficult with classical test theory because definition error depends on measure reliability. This study used generalizability theory, which extends ideas as a framework for evaluating influence psychopathology number trials dependability measurement. Participants included 34 people meeting criteria major depression, 29 an anxiety disorder, 319 controls. For all within‐person...
There is growing awareness across the neuroscience community that replicability of findings about relationship between brain activity and cognitive phenomena can be improved by conducting studies with high statistical power adhere to well-defined standardised analysis pipelines. Inspired recent efforts from psychological sciences, desire examine some foundational using electroencephalography (EEG), we have launched #EEGManyLabs, a large-scale international collaborative replication effort....
In studies of event-related brain potentials (ERPs), numerous decisions about data processing are required to extract ERP scores from continuous data. Unfortunately, the systematic impact these choices on quality and psychometric reliability or even themselves is virtually unknown, which a barrier standardization ERPs. The aim present study was optimize pipelines for error-related negativity (ERN) error positivity (Pe) by considering multiverse choices. A analysis pipeline examines large set...
In studies of event-related brain potentials (ERPs), difference scores between conditions in a task are frequently used to isolate neural activity for use as dependent or independent variable. Adequate score reliability is prerequisite examining relationships ERPs and external correlates, but there no extensive treatment on the suitability various available approaches estimating that focus ERP research. present study, we provide formulas from classical test theory generalizability internal...
Psychophysiological research is an inherently complex undertaking due to the nature of data, and its analysis characterized by many decision points that shape final dataset a study's findings. These decisions create "multiverse" possible outcomes, each from study conceptualization statistical can lead different results interpretations. This review describes concept multiverse analyses, methodological approach designed understand impact on robustness findings interpretation. The emphasis...
We tested competing hypotheses for sex differences in performance monitoring using the error-related negativity and posterror positivity components of event-related potential (ERP). High-density ERPs were acquired while 100 female 98 male partcipants completed a flanker task. Sexes did not differ accuracy or slowing, although females showed longer overall response times. Males increased amplitude relative to females; sexes on correct-trial ERPs. Sex remained subgroups matched depression...
Abstract We assessed the psychometric properties, including internal consistency, test‐retest reliability, and number of trials needed for stability, response time ( RT ) conflict N 2 amplitude measures adaptation (i.e., sequential trial or Gratton effects). Event‐related potentials ERPs were obtained from 79 healthy individuals (44 female) during completion a modified Eriksen flanker task. RTs showed reliable previous‐trial congruency influenced current‐trial measures). Conflict indices...
We investigated the effects of repetition priming on indices conflict adaptation. Event-related potentials (ERPs) were obtained while 210 healthy individuals (111 female, 99 male) completed an Eriksen flanker task. Error rates, response times (RTs), and N2 P3 amplitudes showed significant adaptation (i.e., previous-trial congruencies influenced current-trial measures). After omitting trials with stimulus-response repetitions, RTs did not index adaptation, but show switching effects; error...
