“…The P3b, a positive peak with a parietal distribution elicited between 300 and 500 ms after stimulus onset (Hajcak et al, 2010;Polich, 2007), can provide a measure of top-down attentional control abilities including the endogenous allocation of attention resources towards task relevant stimuli (Chennu et al, 2013;Linden, 2005;Moser et al, 2005), attention resource availability (Hajcak et al, 2010;Moser et al, 2005;Polich, 2007;Delplanque et al, 2005;Hillman et al, 2005;St-Louis-Deschênes et al, 2015;Willner et al, 2015) and context updating (Geng and Vossel, 2013;Polich, 2007). The P3b is often elicited in an oddball paradigm for infrequent target stimuli requiring a response (Kok, 1997;Polich, 2007).…”
