In calculating and examining the event-related potentials, EEG data is to be averaged for the critical word for each electrode position. In the proposed study, “was” + a past-tense verb serves as the critical word. This data will be examined for the baseline and priming task conditions in the time window of -200 ms to 1000 ms relative to the critical word phrase (Regel et al., 2014). The inclusion of the time frame -200 ms to 0 ms will allow for baseline measures for reference when the P600 response is later examined. The measures include the time range of up to 100 ms, as the effects of the P600 are often still seen around 900 ms. Figure 5 shows the prediction for the averaged P600 response using the example sentence of “the ball was kicked by the
