Table 3.

Summary of electrophysiological ANCOVA findings.

Component Amplitude Differences in Stimulus Type or Order Condition Group × Stimulus Condition interaction effect Time window × Stimulus Condition interaction effect
Encoding: Stimulus type and order of stimulus
P1 Distractor > Target n.s.
N1 Third, Second > First n.s.
LPP Distractor > Target n.s. Significant:
- Distractors > Targets for 200–250 ms, 300-600 ms
- Targets > Distractors for 800–850 ms
LPP n.s. (First, Second, Third) n.s.a Significant:
- Second and Third stimuli > First for 200–450 ms
- Third stimulus < First and Second after 700 ms



Retrieval: Probe location based on encoded stimulus type and encoded stimulus order
N1 Target, Distractor > Elsewhere Significant:
- CTRL: Target, Distractor > Elsewhere
- PSZ: No differences across locations
- REL: Distractor > Target > Elsewhere
N1 Third > Second, First Significant:
- CTRL: Third > First
- PSZ: No difference across order
- REL: Third > First
LPP Target, Distractor > Elsewhere n.s.b Significant:
- Distractors > Targets for 250–350 ms
- Distractors > Elsewhere for 300-650 ms, 700–850 ms
- Targets > Elsewhere for 350–600 ms
- Elsewhere > Targets for 250–300 ms

Indicated effects are significant at α = .05. All main effects of group were non-significant. Superscripts indicate analyses where within-group ANCOVAs were performed on the basis of observable differences between group waveforms despite a lack of a significant group by manipulation interaction. For retrieval results, “Target” refers to probes in the position of an encoding target stimulus, “First” to probes in the position of the first encoding stimulus, “Elsewhere” to probes that did not appear in the position of an encoding stimulus, etc.

a

The stimulus order × time window interaction was significant for CTRL, REL.

b

The encoded stimulus order × time window interaction was significant for CTRL alone.
