“…The LDN is a second deflection sometimes found in newborn studies (e.g., Čeponiene et al, 2002;Kushnerenko et al, 2002a;Martynova et al, 2003), but more often in children (for a review, see Cheour et al, 2001). The LDN seems to decrease with age (Cheour et al, 2001).…”

“…Besides reacting to the repetitive stimulation evoking this basic deflection, newborns can detect changes in otherwise repetitive streams of stimuli, as has been shown frequently using ERPs (e.g., Alho et al 1990;Kushnerenko et al, 2002a;Martynova et al, 2003) and lately also in ERF studies Kujala et al, 2004). This response has been associated with the so-called mismatch negativity (MMN), a pre-attentive change-detection response in adults.…”

“…It is proposed that the MMN process triggers the involuntary attention-switching mechanism, manifested in the P3a response , in order to shift the attention away from the primary task towards the change appearing in the unattended auditory stimulation. Also later processes for reacting and attending to the change may be triggered, which are manifested in children and infants as late deflections found in the responses to the changed sounds, such as the late discriminative negativity (LDN) or late negativity (LN) , 2002Martynova et al, 2003;Shestakova et al, 2003).…”

“…The LDN occurs at latencies of 300 -750 ms in newborns (Čeponiene et al, 2002;Kushnerenko et al, 2002a;Martynova et al, 2003). The functional significance of this component is still unknown.…”

New knowledge of the perceptual, discriminative, and memory capabilities of very young infants has opened the door to further evaluation of these abilities in infants who have risk factors for cognitive impairments. A neurophysiologic technique that has been very useful in this regard is the recording of event-related potentials (ERPs). The event-related potential (ERP) technique is widely used by cognitive neuroscientists to study cognitive abilities such as discrimination, attention, and memory. This method has many attractive attributes for use in infants and children as it is relatively inexpensive, does not require sedation, has excellent temporal resolution, and can be used to evaluate early cognitive development in preverbal infants with limited behavioral repertories. In healthy infants and children, ERPs have been used to gain a further understanding of early cognitive development and the effect of experience on brain function. Recently, ERPs have been used to elucidate atypical memory development in infants of diabetic mothers, difficulties with perception and discrimination of speech sounds in infants at risk for dyslexia, and multiple areas of cognitive differences in extremely premature infants. Atypical findings seen in high-risk infants have correlated with later cognitive outcomes, but the sensitivity and specificity of the technique has not been studied, and thus evaluation of individual infants is not possible at this time. With further research, this technique may be very useful in identifying children with cognitive deficits during infancy. Because even young infants can be examined with ERPs, this technique is likely to be helpful in the development of focused early intervention programs used to improve cognitive function in high-risk infants and toddlers.
