Effects of inter-stimulus interval (ISI) duration on the N1 and P2 components of the auditory event-related potential

The N1 and P2 components of the event-related potential are relevant markers in the processing of auditory information, indicating the presence of several acoustic phenomena, such as pure tones or speech sounds. In addition, the expression of these components seems to be sensitive to diverse experimental variations. The main purpose of the present investigation was to explore the role of inter-stimulus interval (IS!) on the N1 and P2 responses, considering two widely used experimental paradig...
