“…They investigated the sound level dependence using a simultaneous measurement of EEG and fMRI with EPI sequences and found no increase in the N1 amplitude with rising sound intensity. This is in contrast to numerous EEG studies outside the scanner (Beagley and Knight, 1967;Beauducel et al, 2000;Carrillo-de-la-Peña, 1999;Hegerl et al, 1994;Kaskey et al, 1980;Picton et al, 1976;Rapin et al, 1966;Näätänen and Picton, 1987, for a review). In the study by Mulert et al (2005), the effect only reached significance when the current source density of the auditory cortex was analyzed.…”

The slope of the amplitude/stimulus intensity function (ASF) of sensory evoked potentials was found to be related to ‘action-oriented’ personality traits like ‘sensation seeking’, ‘extraversion’, and ‘impulsivity’. We studied the ASF slope of the auditory evoked N1/P2 component as well as short-term ASF slope changes and their relationship to a German personality inventory (Freiburger Persönlichkeits-Inventar) in 33 healthy subjects. The ASF slope correlated negatively with ‘life contentment’ and positively with ‘stress’ in the first run. Stronger associations, however, were noted between slope changes within one test session and personality. Subjects scoring high on the second-order factor ‘aggressive excitability’ were characterized by a slope decrease from the first to the second run, following a 20-min interval. This finding of personality-dependent test-retest changes of the ASF slope stresses the importance of monitoring the duration of the recording when studying ASF slopes and offers an explanation for inconsistencies in the literature concerning cross-modal correlations in visual and auditory ASF slopes. The hypothesis is proposed that the serotonergic system, which has been related to ‘action-oriented’ personality, is involved in the modulation of the intensity dependence of the auditory evoked N1/P2 component.

“…Both the earlier P| and P |-N | amplitude measures have been shown to be particularly sensitive to the inten sity dimension of sensory input and to individual differ ences in response to varying stimulus intensities [Kaskey et al, 1980;von Knorring et al, 1978]. On this basis one might generally suggest that the relative increases in Pi during non-task conditions, irrespective of intensity, and in N | irrespective of task, indicate that tobacco results in increased cortical registration of sensory aspects of sur rounding stimuli, whether relevant or irrevelant.…”

In a group of female smokers, cortical evoked potentials (EP) were averaged to low and high intensity auditory stimuli which were presented during both task and non-task conditions and in separate smoking and nonsmoking sessions. Four individual EP peaks, P₁, N_1; P₂, N₂ and 3 peak-to-peak measures, P₁-N₂, N₁-P₂, N₂-P₂, were involved in amplitude analysis. Tobacco significantly interacted with intensity and task condition to produce both increases (P₁, N₁) and decreases (P₂, P₂-N₂) in amplitudes of EP peaks. The results are discussed in relation to arousal and information processing.
