Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Our experimental approach involves the use of three well-established ERP components to tap into different levels of phonological processing in the brain: 1) Mismatch negativity to explore the development of phonological representations, 2) ERP auditory rhyming effect to investigate early stages of phonological awareness, and 3) the go/nogo N200 effect to track the development of phonological segment recognition.
