“…Because, while the N400 resulting from semantic incongruities is typically maximal in the centro-parietal region of the brain (Brown & Hagoort, 1993; Kutas & Federmeier, 2011), violations in metrical/phonological expectancies more commonly result in a N400 that is more frontally located (e.g. Böcker et al, 1999; DeLong et al, 2005; Lau et al, 2008; Steinhauer & Connolly, 2008; Rothermich et al, 2010, 2012; Yan et al, 2017), we selected fronto-central and centro-parietal electrodes (Fpz, FCz, Fz, AFz, Fp1, Fp2, FC1, FC2, F1, F2, AF3, AF4, Cz, P1, P2, C3, C4, Pz, P3, P4, CP1, CP2). Furthermore, because the phonological/metrical N400 has been reported to precede the semantic N400 temporally (e.g.…”
