The article discusses how researchers are trying to link brain activity (ERPs) to different stages of thinking. By studying ERPs and behavior together, they hope to better understand how the brain processes information. Recent experiments focused on two ERP components related to recognizing patterns and categorizing stimuli. The researchers found that certain variables can affect the brain's response, helping to reveal the brain's functions during these stages of processing.
