“…These findings lay in line with numerous studies showing such a self-preference effect (Berlad & Pratt, 1995;Cygan et al, 2014;Fan et al, 2013;Folmer & Yingling, 1997;Gray et al, 2004;Holeckova et al, 2006;Müller & Kutas, 1996;Perrin et al, 2005;Tacikowski & Nowicka, 2010;Tacikowski et al, 2011a;Scott et al, 2005;Sui et al, 2006;Tanaka et al, 2006;Zhao et al, 2009). P300 responses to the present self-name/face were also significantly increased in comparison to the close-other's name/face.…”

“…Amplitudes of N250 component, in turn, were larger for both the self-name (Zhao et al, 2009) and for the self-face (Tanaka et al, 2006;Keyes et al, 2010) than to other names and faces, respectively. Self-face processing resulted also resulted in enhanced amplitudes of N400 in comparison to the face of twin (Butler et al, 2013) or a friend's face (Keyes et al, 2010), as well as in comparison to unfamiliar faces.…”

“…The most consistent findings refer to P300. P300 amplitude is larger for one's own name than for other names (Berlad & Pratt, 1995;Cygan et al, 2014;Fan et al, 2013;Folmer & Yingling, 1997;Gray, Ambady, Lowenthal, & Deldin, 2004;Holeckova et al, 2006;Müller & Kutas, 1996;Perrin et al, 2005;Scott, Luciana, Wewerka, & Nelson, 2005;Sui, Zhu, & Han, 2006;Tacikowski & Nowicka, 2010;Tacikowski et al, 2011;Zhao et al, 2009). This effect seems to be task-independent since it was observed even during passive listening to the one's own name (Holeckova et al, 2008).…”

A growing body of evidence suggests that information regarding the past self and other people is processed similarly. However, there is not much evidence supporting this notion at the neural level. In this event-related potential (ERP) study we examined processing of one's own marital and family name (i.e., present and past self-name, respectively) and images of present and past self-face in comparison to names and faces of others (the close-other, famous and unknown person). Amplitudes of P300 (a late ERP component associated with attention, emotion, and autobiographical memory) to self-face and self-name, either present or past, was enhanced in comparison to famous and unknown faces and names. No differences, however, were observed between the past and present self-names as well as between past and present self-faces. Moreover, P300 amplitude to the past self-face was enhanced in the right hemisphere in comparison to the close-other's face, whereas P300 amplitudes to the past self-name and the close-other's name did not differ. Thus, our results indicated that information related to non-physical aspects of the past self were processed similarly to the close-other.

“…Moreover, larger P3 amplitudes were also elicited by self-names than by other names, which shows the voluntary, top-down controlled attentional processing and the cognitive evaluation of self-relevant information (Berlad and Pratt, 1995;Perrin et al, 2005;Zhao et al, 2009;Tacikowski and Nowicka, 2010;Chen et al, 2011Chen et al, , 2013. Taken together, these ERP findings suggest that attention bias for one's own name occurs at each step of the information processing stream, from early autonomic attention to voluntarily controlled attention at a later stage.…”

“…It has been widely reported that the P3 component could be modulated by one's own name (Gray et al, 2004;Zhao et al, 2009;Tacikowski and Nowicka, 2010;Chen et al, 2011Chen et al, , 2013Tacikowski et al, 2011;Fan et al, 2013). P3, a positive component that appears approximately 300 ms after the stimulus onset, was related to multiple cognitive functions, including top-down controlled attentional processes, cognitive evaluation, and the updating of representations in working memory (Donchin, 1981;Donchin and Coles, 1988;Polich, 2007).…”

Previous studies have widely shown that self-esteem modulates the attention bias towards social rejection or emotion-related information. However, little is known about the influences of self-esteem on attention bias towards self-relevant stimuli. We aimed to investigate neural correlates that underlie the modulation effect of self-esteem on self-relevant processing. Event-related potentials (ERP) were recorded for subjects' own names and close others' names (the names of their friends) while subjects performed a three-stimulus oddball task. The results showed larger P2 amplitudes for one's own name than for close-other's name in the low self-esteem group, whereas this P2 effect were not observed in the high self-esteem group. In addition, one's own name elicited equivalent N250 amplitudes and larger P3 amplitudes compared with close-other's name in both high and low self-esteem groups. However, no interaction effects were observed between self-esteem and self-relevant processing in the N250 and P3 components. Thus, we found that the modulation effects of self-esteem on self-relevant processing occurred at the early P2 stage, but not at the later N250 and P3 stages. These findings reflect that individuals with low self-esteem demonstrate automatic attention towards their own names.

In this study, we investigated whether self‐relevant information can accelerate the processing of emotional information. Our experiment, based on a passive auditory oddball paradigm, involved recording electroencephalography while participants listened to stimuli comprising their own names (ONs) and unfamiliar names (UNs) spoken with varying emotional prosody. At 220–300 ms, mismatch negativity (MMN) was more negative for ONs and angry prosody than for UNs and neutral prosody, respectively. These results suggest that attention is involuntarily attracted by ONs and emotional prosody, and that both types of information are given priority processing, even under pre‐attentive conditions. Importantly, ONs with angry prosody induced more negative MMN than did similar UNs and ONs with neutral prosody, which indicates that the motivational significance embedded in angry prosody promotes the self‐reference effect and, thus, involves more attention resources. At 300–500 ms, ONs triggered smaller P3a than did UNs, suggesting that less cognitive resources are required to process self‐relevant information. These results suggest that self‐relevant and emotional information of preferential processing interact with each other during the pre‐attentive stage, with self‐reference enhancing the processing of emotional information.
