“…In addition, habituation effects modulated P3 amplitude in the high-SES sample but not the low-SES sample. Similarly, St. John et al ( 2019 ) found that high-SES children at 4.5 to 5.5 years-old show increased P3 amplitudes compared to their low-SES counterparts using a go/no-go task. It is also important to know that Wang and Yang ( 2020 ) and Katus et al ( 2020 ) have examined the P3 from frontal sites and St John has obtained effects in posterior sites.…”

“…However, results involving the P3 ERP do not suggest any systematic task-related effects on the relationship between SES and ERP amplitudes. Specifically, similar SES effects on the P3 are observed when attentional tasks of different modalities were used (Katus et al, 2020 ; Wang and Yang, 2020 ) and differences in SES effects on the P3 were found when tasks tapping similar processes are used (Ruberry et al, 2017 ; St. John et al, 2019 ). Overall, this systematic review is unable to establish with certainty whether there are effects of behavioral task differences on the SES-ERP relationship.…”

“…For instance, Katus et al ( 2020 ) failed to observe effects of SES on the P1/N1 components using a midfrontal electrode, whereas Kishiyama et al ( 2009 ) were able to observe SES effects on these potentials with posterior electrodes. However, The P3 was sensitive to SES both on frontal (Katus et al, 2020 ; Wang and Yang, 2020 ) and posterior electrodes (St. John et al, 2019 ).…”

Several decades of behavioral research have established that variations in socioeconomic status (SES) are related to differences in cognitive performance. Neuroimaging and psychophysiological techniques have recently emerged as a method of choice to better understand the neurobiological processes underlying this phenomenon. Here we present a systematic review of a particular sub-domain of this field. Specifically, we used the PICOS approach to review studies investigating potential relationships between SES and scalp event-related brain potentials (ERP). This review found evidence that SES is related to amplitude variations in a diverse range of ERPs: P1, N1, N2, Error-Related Negativities (ERN), N400, auditory evoked potentials, negative difference waves (Nd), P3 and slow waves (SW). These ERPs include early, mid-latency and late potentials that reflect a broad range of cognitive processes (e.g., automatic attentional processes, overt attention, language, executive function, etc.). In this review, all SES effects on ERPs appeared to reflect an impairment or a less efficient form of task-related neural activity for low-SES compared to high-SES individuals. Overall, these results confirm that a wide variety of distinct neural processes with different functional meanings are sensitive to SES differences. The findings of this review also suggest that the relationship between SES and some ERP components may depend on the developmental stage of study participants. Results are further discussed in terms of the current limitations of this field and future avenues of research.

“…One study demonstrated left lateralisation of frontal negativity in both Go and No-Go trials [ 43 ] and another reported that relative to Go trials, No-Go trials elicited longer N2 latencies [ 43 , 44 ]. NoGo trials also elicited larger negative (N2) and positive (P3b) amplitudes compared to Go trials [ 43 , 45 , 47 ]. A study used source localisation analytic techniques to demonstrate an asymmetrical pattern of scalp lateralization of N2: right-lateralized in No-go trials and left-lateralized in Go trials [ 42 ].…”

EEG signatures of cognitive and social development of preschool children–a systematic review

et al. 2021

Background Early identification of preschool children who are at risk of faltering in their development is essential to ensuring that all children attain their full potential. Electroencephalography (EEG) has been used to measure neural correlates of cognitive and social development in children for decades. Effective portable and low-cost EEG devices increase the potential of its use to assess neurodevelopment in children at scale and particularly in low-resource settings. We conducted a systematic review aimed to synthesise EEG measures of cognitive and social development in 2-5-year old children. Our secondary aim was to identify how these measures differ across a) the course of development within this age range, b) gender and c) socioeconomic status (SES). Methods and findings A systematic literature search identified 51 studies for inclusion in this review. Data relevant to the primary and secondary aims was extracted from these studies and an assessment for risk of bias was done, which highlighted the need for harmonisation of EEG data collection and analysis methods across research groups and more detailed reporting of participant characteristics. Studies reported on the domains of executive function (n = 22 papers), selective auditory attention (n = 9), learning and memory (n = 5), processing of faces (n = 7) and emotional stimuli (n = 8). For papers investigating executive function and selective auditory attention, the most commonly reported measures were alpha power and the amplitude and latency of positive (P1, P2, P3) and negative (N1, N2) deflections of event related potential (ERPs) components. The N170 and P1 ERP components were the most commonly reported neural responses to face and emotional faces stimuli. A mid-latency negative component and positive slow wave were used to index learning and memory, and late positive potential in response to emotional non-face stimuli. While almost half the studies described changes in EEG measures across age, only eight studies disaggregated results based on gender, and six included children from low income households to assess the impact of SES on neurodevelopment. No studies were conducted in low- and middle-income countries. Conclusion This review has identified power across the EEG spectrum and ERP components to be the measures most commonly reported in studies in which preschool children engage in tasks indexing cognitive and social development. It has also highlighted the need for additional research into their changes across age and based on gender and SES.

“…Studies on adolescents and adults show that lower P3 amplitudes in the oddball tasks are associated with poorer attentional focusing (Määttä et al., 2005) and higher risk for externalizing disorders (Patrick et al., 2006). The P3 component is sensitive to socioeconomic status: lower household income is related to the P3 amplitude reduction to both go and no‐go stimuli in preschoolers (St. John, Finch, & Tarullo, 2019). This finding in the current study might suggest the overall attentional difficulties in adults with an IC history.…”

The current study investigated the long‐term effects of institutionalization on the inhibitory control of young adults raised in orphanages using the color‐word Stroop task. We examined whether young adults raised in institutions (IC group; n = 24; M = 22.17 years, SD = 6.7) would demonstrate poorer behavioral performance and atypical neural response to incongruent stimuli compared to their peers raised in biological families (Biological Family Care, BFC group; n = 28; M = 22.25 years, SD = 4.9). Accuracy analysis revealed that all participants were less accurate in the incongruent condition, however, no group differences were found. Reaction time analysis showed that the institutional care (IC) group was overall slower than the BFC. No significant differences in neural response to stimuli incongruence were identified. The absence of group differences in the interference condition can be explained by the low complexity of the Stroop task in the current study. The IC group showed a reduced P3 event‐related potential component on both the congruent and incongruent trials. Findings suggest general attention difficulties in this population, rather than inhibitory control deficits.
