Neuromagnetic Responses of the Human Auditory Cortex to Different Types of Infrequent Deviant Stimuli
An infrequent “deviant” auditory stimulus presented among repetitive “standard” stimuli elicits a specific EEG signal termed the mismatch negativity (MMN; Näätänen et al., 1978) which is not seen in responses ...
