Abstract:
Objective To study the effect of different attention states on auditory ERP and EEG power in normal subjects. Methods In three different states such as passive attention,active attention with target counting and active attention without target counting,EEG were recorded using oddball paradigm in 8 normal subjects while the test tones were presented;Then the peak-peak amplitude and latency of ERP were evaluated and the EEG power spectra were observed. Results The condition of active attention with target counting resulted in the smallest peak-peak amplitude of P 2-N 1 and the largest one of P 3-N 2,and it led to the increment of EEG power at the frequency of 10Hz,while the latencies did not differ among the three different attention states. Conclusion Reduced P 2-N 1 amplitude and increased P 3-N 2 amplitude reflected the allocation changes of attention resource in different states,and increased EEG power reflected more energy consumption in the process of recognition and memory,but the latency was relatively stable and not affected significantly by subject's attention condition.
