Popis: |
Visual evoked brain potentials (VEP) to repeated stimuli of several interstimulus intervals (ISI) were recorded from young adults with Down's syndrome (DS). The following results were obtained: (i) An ISI effect previously observed in normals: VEP amplitudes increased with increase in ISI; some ISI effect on latency was also observed; (ii) VEP amplitudes of DS subjects were larger than VEP amplitudes of normals; (iii) VEP peak latencies of DS subjects were longer than VEP peak latencies obtained from normals; (iv) ISI had a more pronounced effect on VEP amplitudes of DS than normal subjects. These results are discussed with respect to CNS differences and issues of attention and information processing. |
