Abstract

Event-related potentials were studied to explore the effects of novelty, along the dimension of categorizability, on P-300 amplitudes and latency. The effects of spatial and verbal information processing on P-300 amplitude and latency as well as the effects of novelty and processing mode on incidental learning were also studied. No significant P-300 data was demonstrated. A forced choice recognition memory test did show significant differences between the spatial and verbal tasks and between the three different stimulus types.
