TOWARD AN INTEGRATION OF P3 RESEARCH WITH COGNITIVE NEUROSCIENCE

In this response, I will first summarize my 1988 argument on the issue of expectancy. Second, I will re-evaluate that argument in the light of the findings made by Sommer et al. and by others. Third, I will des cribe some other problems with the 1988 views. Fourth, I will outline the direction in which I feel that a hypothesis on the P3 complex shou ld be pursued further.
