EEG
Electroencephalography (EEG) is the measurement of electrical activity produced by the brain as recorded from electrodes placed on the scalp.

SCALP (CUERO CABELLUDO) EEG
Scalp EEG is collected from tens to hundreds of electrodes positioned on different locations at the surface of the head.
EEG signals (in the range of millivolts) are amplified and digitalized for later processing.

ERP (POTENCIA EVOCADA) Event-related brain potentials (ERPs) are positive
and negative voltage fluctuations (or components) in the ongoing EEG that are time-locked to the onset of a sensory, motor, or cognitive event.
ERPs reflect brain activity that is specifically related to some stimulus or other event.
This activity cannot be directly observed in the EEG the EEG is a composite of simultaneously occurring
brain activity it doesn't reflect just the activity associated with the
event of interest In other words, the "signal" (the brain response to
some event) is swamped by the "noise" (the brain activity that is unrelated to that event).

SIGNAL AVERAGING The solution to this problem is to present not
just one instance of the event of interest, but many instances.
Epochs of brain activity, each one time-locked to the onset of an event, are then averaged together.
The "random" activity washes out during averaging, whereas the brain activity of interest - namely, what is constant over presentations of the event of interest - stays in the signal.
Through this signal-averaging procedure, it is possible to isolate the brain response that is specifically elicited in response to some event of interest.

INTRODUCTION
The first phase (100-300 ms) represents the time window in which the initial syntactic structure is formed on the basis of information about word category.
For instance, the insertion of a contracted preposition+article between an auxiliary verb and past participle in German, produces a significantly higher ERP amplitude during this period than the same sentence without the intrusive material Die Gans wurde (*im) gefüttert. The goose was (*in the) fed.

SINCE THE MEANING DOESN’T MATTER, WE CAN WRITE WORD-ORDER RULES BASED ON CATEGORIES
A noun phrase (NP) consists of … ? An optional determiner followed by one or more
adjectives followed by a noun NP (Det) Adj (Adj) N
A verb phrase (VP) consists of … ? A verb followed by an adverb VP V Adv
A sentence consists of … ? A noun phrase followed by a verb phrase S NP VP

BUT SUCH A REAL GRAMMAR IS FAIRLY COMPLEX
Perhaps too complex for direct study They can teach subjects a simplified set of
rules from a language that they do not know. But even better is to teach subjects an
artificial grammar (the syntactic analog of a nonsense word) which have easy-to-control properties.

A REGULAR GRAMMAR
The rules S Xab X Xab X ab
How would you generate the string “ababab”?
This language is known as (ab)n. From fMRI we know that violations of this
grammar activate BA 44 and BA 6. The English grammar that we made up is
also of this type. So are the violations of German grammar.

SUBCATEGORIZATION VIOLATIONSIN GERMAN 1 (RÖSLER ET AL. 1993) The passive voice only applies to transitive
verbs: Someone greeted the president. > The president was greeted. The teacher fell. > *The teacher was fallen.
We say that (4) violates the subcategorization requirement of fall, which is that it cannot take a direct object
Sample test sentences in German Der Präsident wurde begrüßt. the president is-being greeted *Der Lehrer wurde gefallen. the teacher is-being fallen

SUBCATEGORIZATION VIOLATIONSIN GERMAN 2 (RÖSLER ET AL. 1993)
In German, verbs take one auxiliary (haben) or another (sein) in the perfect tenses: Der Clown hat gelacht. the clown has laughed Der Dichter ist gegangen. the poet has left
Sample test sentences: Der Clown hat gelacht. *Der Dichter hat gegangen.

AGREEMENT VIOLATIONS IN ENGLISH (OSTERHOUT & MOBLEY 1995)
Verbs must agree with their subjects in number The elected officials {hope/*hopes} to succeed.
Reflexive pronouns must agree with their antecedents in number and gender Number: The hungry guests helped
{themselves/*himself} to food. Gender: The successful woman congratulated
{herself/*himself} on the promotion.
