Abstract:
We used event-related potentials to investigate the time course and distribution of brain activity while adults performed (1) a sequential learning task involving complex structured sequences and (2) a language processing task. These results are interpreted as an indication that an index of violations and the cost of integration of expectations for upcoming material when processing complex sequential structure. The research concludes that the same neural mechanisms may be recruited for both syntactic processing of linguistic stimuli and sequential learning of structured sequence patterns more generally.
