Popis: | In numerous investigations the P300-component of the event related potential has proved a valid indicator of memory activities. The present study explores the amplitude and latency of the components of event-related potential regarding short-term memory task. Event related potentials, elicited by auditory stimuli, were recorded in 40 healthy subjects. For evaluating short term memory capacity of a subject, software in Delphi for Windows language was written. Algorithm of the software was the presentation of randomly selected four different digits for 4 seconds, removing it and waiting for subject's response, adding one digit, if response was true, otherwise decreased by one. After 20 trials, mean of recall time for true answers was computed. The subjects with high recall time showed prolonged latency of P300. A positive correlation was found between P300 latency and recall time. No correlation was found between N1, P2 and N2 latency or amplitude and recall time. These results suggest that memory problems are well correlated with the abnormalities of P300. |
