“…The intrinsic manipulation modulated both frontal and parietal ERP old-new effects, but there was no effect of the extrinsic manipulation on object recognition ERPs, as long as the feature was not made directly task relevant, in the exclusion task in Experiment 2. In this case, context affected the LPC recollection effect, as was expected, but the FN400 familiarity effect remained uninfluenced by context and can thus be considered acontextual, independent of task relevance (but see Ecker, Zimmer, Groh-Bordin, & Mecklinger, 2007;Tsivilis et al, 2001). Apparently, the representation subjects address in order to make an old-new decision via familiarity (the object token) includes intrinsic information, but it does not comprise contextual information, even if this information is voluntarily accessible and task relevant.…”
