Description
Visual evoked potentials were elicited by tachistoscopic
presentation of familiar (real words) and novel (pseudowords)
verbal stimuli to young and elderly adults. The amplitude
and latency of the P300 component did not differ significantly
for any of the experimental conditions. Excessive
noise in the averaged waveforms, most likely due to eye
and motor contaminants, may have been partly responsible
for the failure to confirm the hypotheses.
