- The Inter-trial Validity-Invalidity Effect is analyzed by Event-Related Potentials.
- 'Processing Negativity' was higher in invalid-valid than in valid-valid sequences.
- P3a/P3b components were higher in valid-invalid than in invalid-invalid sequences.
- Results show a sequential dynamic updating of attention and working memory.
- Results are compatible with the Bayesian Brain Model.
The present study tries to analyze the neural basis of the so-called “Inter-trial Validity-Invalidity Effects” by means of Event-Related Potentials. The N1, P2, P3a and P3b components were examined. The aim is to show the sequential effects on Event-Related Potentials by analyzing the effect of previous trial condition (n â 1) in the processing of current trial target (n). Event-Related Potentials results indicate that the N1 and P2 components show higher negativity in valid trials preceded by invalid trials with respect to valid trials preceded by valid trials, elicited by the so-called “Processing Negativity”. Next, the P3a and P3b components show increased positivity in invalid trials preceded by valid trials compared to invalid trials preceded by invalid trials. Present results suggest that there is a dynamic updating of attentional resources and working memory, due to the influence of previous trial condition (n â 1) on the current trial processing (n). This dynamic updating would be higher after trial validity changes, and it would be compatible with the Bayesian Brain Model.
