Unexpected events are part of everyday experience. They come in several varieties—action
errors, unexpected action outcomes, and unexpected perceptual events—and they lead to …

Some years ago we described a negative (Ne) and a later positive (Pe) deflection in the
event-related brain potentials (ERPs) of incorrect choice reactions [Falkenstein, M …

Cognitive aging is a flourishing area of research. A significant amount of new data, a number
of new theoretical notions, and many new research issues have been generated in the past …

The ERN is a negative deflection in the event-related potential that peaks approximately 50
ms after the commission of an error. The ERN is thought to reflect early error-processing …

The error‐related negativity (ERN) and error positivity (Pe) are increasingly being examined
as neural correlates of response monitoring. The minimum number of error trials included in …

We conducted a literature review to examine the functional significance of the error positivity
(Pe), an error-related electrophysiological brain potential often observed in combination with …

Research on cognitive aging seems to have three primary goals: first, to determine the
extent to which the diversity of observed behavioral changes that occur with advancing age …

Many aspects of attention decline with aging. There is a current debate on how aging also
affects sustained attention. In this study, we contribute to this debate by meta-analytically …

The error-related negativity (ERN) is a negative deflection approximately 50ms following an
erroneous response, and is thought to reflect activity of the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), a …

When participants commit errors or receive feedback signaling that they have made an error,
a negative brain potential is elicited. According to Holroyd and Coles's (in press) …
