Table 2.

Types of standard and deviant trials of each block in each condition.

Condition 1 Condition 2 Condition 3
Face-only Face-Voice Face-Tone
Standard Deviant Standard Deviant Congruence of deviant Standard Deviant
Block 1 Sad Fear Sad-Fear Fear-Fear Congruent Sad-Tone 1 Fear-Tone 1
Block 2 Sad Fear Sad-Sad Fear-Sad Incongruent Sad-Tone 2 Fear-Tone 2
Block 3 Fear Sad Fear-Fear Sad-Fear Incongruent Fear-Tone 1 Sad-Tone 1
Block 4 Fear Sad Fear-Sad Sad-Sad Congruent Fear-Tone 2 Sad-Tone 2

Facial stimuli (in bold) of each block are identical across three conditions; auditory stimuli (in italic) are identical across standard and deviant trials within each block. In each block of each condition, MMN was calculated by subtracting the ERP responses to Standards from that to the Deviants in the same block. i.e., in each block, MMN = Deviant (10%)—Standard (80%).
