“…Meanwhile, it has been shown that stable initial memory representations disabled learning transfer between different memory tasks 57 . The long-term impact of the primarily acquired statistical structure and its predictive power have also been demonstrated in the perception of the auditory environment 58, 59 and in processing native and non-native phonetic features of word stress 60 as indicated by event-related brain potentials (e.g., the mismatch negativity). In line with the previous studies, our results suggest the more influential role of the primarily learnt statistical structure.…”

Statistical learning is a robust mechanism of the brain that enables the extraction of environmental patterns, which is crucial in perceptual and cognitive domains. However, the dynamical change of processes underlying long-term statistical memory formation has not been tested in an appropriately controlled design. Here we show that a memory trace acquired by statistical learning is resistant to inference as well as to forgetting after one year. Participants performed a statistical learning task and were retested one year later without further practice. The acquired statistical knowledge was resistant to interference, since after one year, participants showed similar memory performance on the previously practiced statistical structure after being tested with a new statistical structure. These results could be key to understand the stability of long-term statistical knowledge.

“…Importantly, whereas an mmn may be elicited by a purely acoustic difference, many studies will additionally switch the position of the deviant stimulus and the standard stimulus, such that they have another condition, wherein the deviant is presented frequently, while the (formerly) standard stimulus is presented infrequently (e.g. Honbolygó & Csépe, 2013; Aguilera et al, 2014; Scharinger et al, 2016, see also Astésano et al in prep ). If the standard and deviant stimuli differ only acoustically, the mmn s in both conditions should be similar.…”

“…The deviant elicited two different mmn s: one in response to the lack of the typical and expected stress on the first syllable, and another to the atypical additional stress on the second syllable. In a follow-up study, the trochaic and iambic stress pattern served both as standards and deviants in two separate blocks (Honbolygó & Csépe, 2013). Again, the results indicated that the deviant with an iambic stress pattern elicited two consecutive mmn s, however, when the trochaic patterns had been the deviant, no mmn followed.…”

“…Because in mmn studies which set out to investigate word processing, it is generally recommended to reduce stimulus variation between the standard and deviant as much as possible (Pulvermüller & Shtyrov, 2006; Honbolygó & Csépe, 2013), the oddball paradigm in the current study either presented only ‘casino’, or only ‘paradis’. However, because we were interested in the phonological representation of fa , which should be similar between the two words, the data obtained from both versions are combined in the analysis (see below).…”

Forty-five years have passed since the first publication of the mismatch negativity (MMN) event-related brain potential (ERP) component. The first 10 years of research hardly gained any particular attention of the scientific community interested in acoustic perception. Debates on the nature of sensation versus perception were going on, and the technical possibilities to record ERPs, called in general evoked potentials, were very limited. Subtle changes in pure tone frequency or intensity giving rise to the MMN component were first investigated in humans. The background of the theoretical model developed by Risto Näätänen was the orientation reaction model of E.N. Sokolov published in 1963 so that the MMN was seen first as an electrophysiological correlate of auditory change detection. This fundamental ability of the auditory system seen as crucial for survival led to the development of the first animal model of the MMN (Csépe et al. in Clin Neurophysiol 66: 571–578, 1987). Indeed, it was confirmed that the MMN was the brain correlate of subtle changes detected that might alert to potential threats in the environment and direct the behavioral orientation. The investigations performed after 2000 introduced complex models and more sophisticated methods, both in animal and human studies, so that the MMN method was on the way to become a tool on the first place and not the main goal of research. This approach was further strengthened by the increasing number of studies on different clinical populations aiming at future applications. The aim of our review is to describe and redefine what the MMN may reflect in auditory perception and to show why and how this brain correlate of changes in the auditory scene can be used as a valuable tool in cognitive neuroscience research. We refer to publications selected to underly the argument the MMN cannot be classified anymore as a sign of simple change detection and not all the indicators used to confirm how genuine the MMN elicited by variations of tones are valid for those to speech contrasts. We provide a fresh view on the broadly used MMN models, provided by some influential publications as well as on the unwritten history of MMN research aiming to give revised picture on what the MMN may truly reflect. We show how the focus and terminology of the MMN research have changed and what kind of misunderstandings and seemingly contradictive results prevent the MMN community to accept a generally usable cognitive model.
