Abstrakt: Epilepsy is considered to be related to deficits in suppression function and is also known to be associated with specific character traits. In this study, we used paired-pulse suppression of change-related cortical responses and the Bear-Fedio personality inventory (BFI) in 34 healthy adults. With a continuous sound duration of 2,000 ms, change-related responses were elicited twice at 1,100 and 1,700 ms. The P50/N100 amplitude was used to calculate the degree of paired-pulse suppression. Results showed that the suppression rate was negatively correlated with the total BFI score (r = − 0.50, p = 0.004) as well as 9 of the 18 subscales (− 0.5 < r ≤ − 0.3). A significant negative correlation was also found between the amplitude of the response to the first stimulus and the total BFI score (r = − 0.64, p = 8.8*10− 5). These findings suggest that inhibitory function is linked to epilepsy personality traits as indexed by the BFI. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
