“…For example, the fact that there is a relationship between neural and behavioral measures licenses the use of electrophysiological data in contexts that go beyond within participant manipulations of memory, including between-group comparisons such as good vs. poor performers ( Curran et al, 2001 ; Van Petten et al, 2002 ; Wolk et al, 2009 ; Dockree et al, 2015 ), old vs. young participants ( Li et al, 2004 ; Wolk et al, 2009 ; Dockree et al, 2015 ), men vs. women ( Guillem and Mograss, 2005 ; Guillem et al, 2009 ), or participants exhibiting more or less false memories ( Nessler et al, 2001 ; Morcom, 2015 ). Equally, because it indexes episodic recollection, the ERP effect is considered to be useful as a bio-marker of memory decline with disease ( Olichney et al, 2008 ; Addante et al, 2012 ), memory deficiency in healthy adults ( Palombo et al, 2015 ), and as a tool for assessing differences in the development of memory processes ( Kipp et al, 2015 ). Whilst these scenarios vary in the nature of the comparisons being made, to produce interpretable results they all rely on comparisons of the magnitude of effects between participants, an approach that is licensed by the presence of a reliable relationship between behavioral and neural measures of recollection.…”
