• FREE-Introduction to Event Related Potentials in Clinical Practice
  An event-related potential (ERP) is an electrical response of the brain to a specific event. It is measured by the same amplifiers as a conventional multi-channel EEG but records brain activity during task performance, i.e., sequential presentation of stimuli (visual, auditory) and response to stimuli (pressing a button, verbal response). The ERP analysis software corrects for artifacts, samples the recorded EEG into stimulus (or response)-locked segments, averages the segments to obtain raw ERPs, separates them into latent components by blind source separation techniques, and compares the components with the corresponding ones in healthy controls in and different psychiatric conditions (ADHD, autism, depression, schizophrenia, OCD, etc). Each of the components is associated with a specific psychological operation (such as stimulus detection, stimulus recognition, working memory, conflict detection, action initiation, action inhibition) which may be specifically or non-specifically impaired in a certain psychiatric condition. There are reasons to add ERPs into your clinical practice:
  • ERPs show superior diagnostic power in comparison to QEEG. Many ERP components demonstrate high effect sizes for discriminating a patient group from healthy controls. The number of papers exploring ERPs for diagnosis is 10 times larger than that of QEEG papers.
  • ERP technique provides behavioural information such as reaction time and its variability, omission and commission errors. For example, one can differentiate behavioural pattern of the inattentive ADHD subtype.
  • ERPs indicate the specific operations which are impaired in a patient thus providing crucial information for electrode location of neurofeedback, tDCS and TMS techniques. For example, one can define what part (temporal-parietal or frontal) of the cognitive control system is impaired in ADHD.
  • ERPs also predict a response of the patient to medication. For example, measuring the ERPs before and after application of one dose of Ritalin one can define if the patient will respond to psychostimulant
