The mismatch negativity (MMN) is a brain response to violations of a rule, established by a
sequence of sensory stimuli (typically in the auditory domain)[Näätänen R. Attention and …

The present article outlines the contribution of the mismatch negativity (MMN), and its
magnetic equivalent MMNm, to our understanding of the perception of speech sounds in the …

This article reviews recent event-related brain potential (ERP) studies of involuntary
attention and distractibility in response to novelty and change in the acoustic environment …

In the present review, we summarize the most recent findings and current views about the
structural and functional basis of human brain lateralization in the auditory modality. Main …

The present study addresses the functional role of the temporal and frontal lobes in auditory
change detection. Prior event-related potential (ERP) research suggested that the mismatch …

Mismatch negativity (MMN) component of the event-related brain potentials has become
popular in cognitive and clinical brain research during the recent years. It is an early …

Musicians exchange non-verbal cues as messages when they play together. This is
particularly true in music with a sketchy outline. Jazz musicians receive and interpret the …

Previous positron emission tomography (PET) and functional magnetic resonance imaging
(fMRI) studies show that during attentive listening, processing of phonetic information is …
