A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University, in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor Philosophy Milwaukee, Wisconsin August 2012 ABSTRACT INTEGRATION OF EEG-FMRI IN AN AUDITORY ODDBALL PARADIGM USING JOINT INDEPENDENT COMPONENT ANALYSIS Jain Mangalathu Arumana, B.Sc., M.Sc. Marquette University, 2012 The integration of event-related potential (ERP) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) can contribute to characterizing neural networks with high temporal and spatial resolution. The overall objective of this dissertation is to determine the sensitivity and limitations of joint independent component analysis (jICA) within- subject for integration of ERP and fMRI data collected simultaneously in a parametric auditory oddball paradigm. The main experimental finding in this work is that jICA revealed significantly stronger and more extensive activity in brain regions associated with the auditory P300 ERP than a P300 linear regression analysis, both at the group level and within-subject. The results suggest that, with the incorporation of spatial and temporal information from both imaging modalities, jICA is more sensitive to neural sources commonly observed with ERP and fMRI compared to a linear regression analysis. Furthermore, computational simulations suggest that jICA can extract linear and nonlinear relationships between ERP and fMRI signals, as well as uncoupled sources (i.e., sources with a signal in only one imaging modality). These features of jICA can be important for assessing disease states in which the relationship between the ERP and fMRI signals is unknown, as well as pathological conditions causing neurovascular uncoupling, such as stroke. i ACKNOWDLEDGEMENTS Jain Mangalathu Arumana, B.Sc., M.Sc.

  • A Critical Review of the Deviance Detection Theory of Mismatch Negativity
    Review A Critical Review of the Deviance Detection Theory of Mismatch Negativity Jamie A. O’Reilly 1,* and Amonrat O’Reilly 2 1 College of Biomedical Engineering, Rangsit University, Pathumthani 12000, Thailand 2 Thailand Institute for Science and Technological Research, Pathumthani 12120, Thailand; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Mismatch negativity (MMN) is a component of the difference waveform derived from passive auditory oddball stimulation. Since its inception in 1978, this has become one of the most popular event-related potential techniques, with over two-thousand published studies using this method. This is a testament to the ingenuity and commitment of generations of researchers engaging in basic, clinical and animal research. Despite this intensive effort, high-level descriptions of the mechanisms theorized to underpin mismatch negativity have scarcely changed over the past four decades. The prevailing deviance detection theory posits that MMN reflects inattentive detection of difference between repetitive standard and infrequent deviant stimuli due to a mismatch between the unexpected deviant and a memory representation of the standard. Evidence for these mechanisms is inconclusive, and a plausible alternative sensory processing theory considers fundamental principles of sensory neurophysiology to be the primary source of differences between standard and deviant responses evoked during passive oddball stimulation. By frequently being restated without appropri- ate methods to exclude alternatives, the potentially flawed deviance detection theory has remained largely dominant, which could lead some researchers and clinicians to assume its veracity implicitly.

For the last 4 min, a three-stimulus auditory oddball series was presented during both meditation and control periods through headphones and no task imposed. Time-frequency analysis demonstrated that meditation relative to the control condition evinced decreased evoked delta (2–4 Hz) power to distracter stimuli concomitantly with a greater event-related reduction of late (500–900 ms) alpha-1 (8–10 Hz) activity, which indexed altered dynamics of attentional engagement to distracters. Additionally, standard stimuli were associated with Downloaded from increased early event-related alpha phase synchrony (inter-trial coherence) and evoked theta (4–8 Hz) phase synchrony, suggesting enhanced processing of the habituated standard background stimuli. Finally, during meditation, there was a greater differential early-evoked gamma power to the different stimulus classes. Correlation analysis indicated that this effect stemmed from a meditation state-related increase in early distracter-evoked gamma power and phase synchrony specific to longer-term expert practitioners.

Copyright r 2009 Society for Psychophysiological Research DOI: 10.1111/j.1469-8986.2009.00817.x Impaired response selection in schizophrenia: Evidence from the P3 wave and the lateralized readiness potential STEVEN J. LUCK,a EMILY S. KAPPENMAN,a REBECCA L. FULLER,b BENJAMIN ROBINSON,b ANN SUMMERFELT,b and JAMES M. GOLDb aUniversity of California, Davis, California, USA bMaryland Psychiatric Research Center, Baltimore, Maryland, USA Abstract Reaction times (RTs) are substantially prolonged in schizophrenia patients, but the latency of the P3 component is not. This suggests that the RT slowing arises from impairments in a late stage of processing. To test this hypothesis, 20 schizophrenia patients and 20 control subjects were tested in a visual oddball paradigm that was modified to allow measurement of the lateralized readiness potential (LRP), an index of stimulus-response translation processes. Difference waves were used to isolate the LRP and the P3 wave. Patients and control subjects exhibited virtually identical P3 difference waves, whereas the LRP difference wave was reduced in amplitude and delayed in latency in the patients. These results indicate that, at least in simple tasks, the delayed RTs observed in schizophrenia are primarily a consequence of impairments in the response selection and preparation processes that follow perception and catego- rization. Descriptors: Schizophrenia, P3, Lateralized readiness potential, LRP Although delusions and hallucinations are the most dramatic slowing in schizophrenia led the field to largely abandon the features of schizophrenia, this disorder is also accompanied by investigation of this robust empirical finding.

  • Event-Related Brain Potentials and Neuropsychology
    Part I Neuropsychology of Language: Methods and Paradigms 26 Potentials and Paradigms: Event - Related Brain Potentials and Neuropsychology Marta Kutas , Michael Kiang , and Kim Sweeney Introduction In the past few decades, researchers in neuropsychology have applied a wealth of new scientifi c techniques to investigate brain mechanisms underlying cognitive (dys)function. Here, we focus on how one such technique – scalp - recorded electro- encephalographic (EEG) event - related brain potentials (ERPs) – has impacted our understanding of normal cognitive processes (including language) and which thus has great potential for investigating their disruption by disease states. Given what is now known about certain ERP effects in particular paradigms, combining the ERP method with neuropsychology is an excellent marriage of two specialized techniques. In ERP studies, the EEG is recorded from participants, typically via surface elec- trodes affi xed to the scalp (or embedded in a cap), as experimental stimuli are presented and sometimes, albeit not necessarily, require a (manual, vocal, or silent) response. In this context, the cognitive “ events ” of interest may include a particular class of stimulus, the absence of an (expected) stimulus (omitted stimulus para- digm), a correct or incorrect response, among many other possibilities, as long as a distinct time point for ERP time - locking can be defi ned; speech, environmental sounds, sign language, gestures, short videos, and the like also can be used. Segments of the EEG, each encompassing a fi xed period of time before and/or after each instance (or “ trial ” ) of an event, can then be averaged to yield an average ERP. Averaging over multiple trials eliminates unrelated background activity that theo- retically is random with respect to the stimulus and thus averages to zero, given enough trials.

  • An Event-Related Potential Study Using the Oddball Paradigm Boris V
    Psychology & Neuroscience, 2013, 6, 3, 235 - 245 DOI: 10.3922/j.psns.2013.3.01 Temperament: an event-related potential study using the oddball paradigm Boris V. Chernyshev1, 2, Ivan E. Lazarev1, and Elena G. Chernysheva1 1. National Research University Higher School of Economics, Moscow, Russian Federation 2. Lomonosov Moscow State University, Moscow, Russian Federation Abstract The present study examined the structure of interrelations between brain event-related potentials and behavioral measures and temperament dimensions during an attention task. Three temperament questionnaires were used: Eysenck Personality Inventory, Strelau Temperament Inventory, and Rusalov Structure of Temperament Questionnaire. Event-related potentials were recorded using the active auditory oddball paradigm. The stimuli (85 dB; 1050 and 1000 Hz sinusoidal tones as targets and non-targets, respectively) were easily discriminated by all of the participants. A complex framework of interrelations between temperament and personality dimensions, behavioral measures, and event-related potentials was found. P3 amplitude was negatively correlated with the number of response omissions. Emotionality was positively correlated with P2 and N1-P2 complex amplitudes. Extraversion and Mobility of Nervous Processes were negatively correlated with the amplitude of the N1-P2 complex, and Social Ergonicity was negatively correlated with N2 latency. The results indicate that Extraversion tends to be associated with both the intensity and temporal aspects of temperament and suggest the importance of using a multidimensional approach in temperament studies.

  • Target Detection in Healthy 4-Week Old Piglets from a Passive Two-Tone
    Oeur and Margulies BMC Neurosci (2020) 21:52 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12868-020-00601-4 BMC Neuroscience RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Target detection in healthy 4-week old piglets from a passive two-tone auditory oddball paradigm R. Anna Oeur1 and Susan S. Margulies1,2* Abstract Background: Passive auditory oddball tests are efort independent assessments that evaluate auditory processing and are suitable for paediatric patient groups. Our goal was to develop a two-tone auditory oddball test protocol and use this clinical assessment in an immature large animal model. Event-related potentials captured middle latency P1, N1, and P2 responses in 4-week old (N 16, female) piglets using a custom piglet 32- electrode array on 3 non-con- secutive days. The efect of target tone= frequency (250 Hz and 4000 Hz) on middle latency responses were tested in a subset of animals. Results: Results show that infrequent target tone pulses elicit greater N1 amplitudes than frequent standard tone pulses. There was no efect of day. Electrodes covering the front of the head tend to elicit greater waveform responses. P2 amplitudes increased for higher frequency target tones (4000 Hz) than the regular 1000 Hz target tones (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Two-tone auditory oddball tests produced consistent responses day-to-day. This clinical assessment was successful in the immature large animal model. Keywords: Auditory oddball paradigm, EEG, Event-related potential, Porcine Highlights Background Approximately 283,000 children and adolescents • Two-tone auditory oddball tests were successfully (< 18 years old) visit the emergency department for a assessed in an immature large animal model.
