RT Journal Article SR Electronic A1 Petřek, Josef T1 ERPs to nouns and verbs - congruences and differences JF Biomedical papers YR 2004 VO 148 IS 2 SP 153 OP 156 DO 10.5507/bp.2004.027 UL https://biomed.papers.upol.cz/artkey/bio-200402-0008.php AB The results of the multivariate analysis of variance confirmed statistically significant differences in latency and amplitude of some ERPs waves to nouns and ERPs to verbs. ERPs to nouns differ from ERPs to verbs by a significantly longer latency and greater amplitude of some waves. A comparison of the characteristics of ERPs to nouns and ERPs to verbs separately in males and females produced basically identical results; in females, however, there are much fewer significant differences than in males. Interaction between the site of the recording electrode and features of ERPs to words of different word classes however could not be demonstrated.
