Fig. 3From: Emotional words facilitate lexical but not early visual processingEvent-related potential (ERP) to word onset. a ERPs at the four electrode clusters marked in the middle panel. Gray bars indicate analyzed time windows. Note that the visible SSVEP oscillation was not filtered out but its influence was minimized by analyzing time windows that were multiples of the 12.14 Hz SSVEP wavelength. Seemingly comparable SSVEP amplitudes at the four quadrants are a result of posterior clusters sparing the SSVEP maximum around Oz (Fig. 2a). b Difference maps: emotional word content (left) affected the ERP amplitude only during the P2 and N400 time windows, word lexicality (right) modulated all three componentsBack to article page
