“…That is, condition 2 relies on a shorter stimulus presentation time, and it does not seem likely that a shorter stimulus duration (condition 2) would elicit a larger ERP deflection in the latency range of the N170. Rather, longer stimulus duration times have been shown to elicit larger amplitude visual evoked offset responses (Morotomi & Kitajima, 1975;Wilson, 1983). Thirdly, we would expect that subtle differences in the timing of the visual (Maier, Dagnelie, Spekreijse, & van Dijk, 1987) than those in the N170 latency range over temporal areas.…”
