Abstract:Mismatch Negativity (MMN) is an event-related potential component
automatically elicited by events that violate predictions based on prior
events. To elicit this component, researchers use stimulus repetition to
induce predictions, and the MMN is obtained by subtracting the brain
response to rare or unpredicted stimuli from that of frequent stimuli.
Under the predictive processing framework, one increasingly popular
interpretation of the mismatch response postulates that MMN represents a
prediction error. In t… Show more
