“…Distributed over fronto-central areas (Crowley & Colrain, 2004;Woods, 1995), these components typically have a polarity reversal over inferior posterior electrodes, when measured against an average reference, as their sources are mainly in the temporal lobe (Crowley & Colrain, 2004;Fogarty et al, 2020;Näätänen & Picton, 1987). The auditory N1 and P2 adaptations, as reflected by amplitude decrement, were found in a vast number of previous studies using pairs of tones or long trains of tones (e.g., N1: Bourbon et al, 1987;Budd et al, 1998;Lagemann et al, 2012;Näätänen & Picton, 1987;Rosburg, 2004;Rosburg & Mager, 2021;Rosburg et al, 2006;N1 and P2: Hari et al, 1982;Herrmann et al, 2016;Peter et al, 2019;Polich, 1986;Rosburg et al, 2022;Rosburg et al, 2010;Sambeth et al, 2004). Regarding the adaptation pattern, most studies showed an N1 decrease stabilized after the 2 nd or 3 rd sound in a stimulus sequence but no further decrease for subsequent sounds (e.g., Barry et al, 1992;Bourbon et al, 1987;Budd et al, 1998;Lagemann et al, 2012;Rosburg, 2004), although some studies found a gradual response decrease (e.g., Öhman & Lader, 1972).…”
