Table 4. Neuroscan versus EPOC EEG system ERP peak comparisons: active listening.

Descriptive (n, M [lower, upper 95% confidence intervals]) and inferential (t or Z and Cohen’s d) statistics for peak (P1, N1, P2, N2) amplitude (µV) and latency (ms) measure at sites F3/AF3 and F4/AF4 for Neuroscan versus EPOC in the active condition.
