Localizing pre-attentive auditory memory-based comparison: Magnetic mismatch negativity to pitch change
Localizing pre-attentive auditory memory-based comparison: Magnetic mismatch negativity to pitch change is a scholarly work by Burkhard Maess, Thomas Jacobsen, Erich Schröger, and Angela D. Friederici, published in 2007 in ''NeuroImage''. The main subjects of the publication include event-related potential, magnetoencephalography, attention, electroencephalography, psychology, echoic memory, audiology, cognition, mismatch negativity, neuroscience, audio signal processing, sensory memory, superior temporal gyrus, Oddball paradigm, brain activity and meditation, hearing loss, auditory system, and P3a. Results replicated ERP findings that MMN to pitch change is a compound of the activity of a sensorial, non-comparator mechanism and a cognitive, comparator mechanism which could be separated in time.
