Abstract:
Objective:To explore the characteristics of event-related potential(ERP) in the development of alert attention of children aged 6-11 years old.
Methods:A total of 144 children aged 6-11 years old were enrolled in a continuous performance test (CPT, Go/Nogo stimulus task). The latency and amplitude of frontal region cue/uncue-P3 and CNV were analyzed and compared in all age groups.
Results:(1)Behavioral comparison among different age groups: correct number(35(31, 38), 37(34, 38.25), 37(34.75, 39), 38(35, 39.25), 39(37.25, 40), 39(39, 40)), correct reaction time((566.88±86.63)ms, (530.10±83.40)ms, (509.17±88.99)ms, (488.31±76.23)ms, (463.45±75.78)ms, (417.24±75.78)ms), the differences were statistically significant(P<0.01). (2)Fz lead ERP characteristics: ①Comparison of cue-CNV and uncue-CNV: 6-year-old group((-8.54±4.56)μV vs (-10.13±6.36)μV), 7-year-old group((-9.20±5.34)μV vs (-11.53±4.29)μV), 8-year-old group((-8.37±4.78)μV vs (-11.35±6.38)μV)in amplitude and 9-year-old group((689.25±268.22)ms vs (826.13±174.62)ms)in latency were significantly different(P<0.05). ②Comparison of cue-P3 and uncue-P3: 6-year-old group((4.29±4.11)μV vs (7.45±3.83)μV), 7-year-old group((4.47±4.71)μV vs (5.82±4.40)μV), 8-year-old group((3.76±3.39)μV vs (6.24±4.91)μV), 9-year-old group((4.27±3.57)μV vs (5.93±3.08)μV), 11-year-old group((4.24±4.66)μV vs (6.13±4.42)μV)in amplitude were significantly different(P<0.05). ③Longitudinal comparison among age groups: the latency of cue-CNV in 9-year-old group and 11-year-old group were shorter, and the difference was significant(P<0.05). The amplitudes of cue-CNV and cue-P3 in 10-year-old group were shorter than those in other age groups(P<0.05).
Conclusion:With the increase of age, the reaction time of school-age children shortened and the correct rate improved.The age of 9-10 may be the high-speed period of the development for brain network on vigilant attention and psychological prediction which may be related to the maturation and development of frontal cortex.
