Abstract
This article reviews literature on the characteristics and possible interpretations of the event-related potential (ERP) peaks commonly identified in research. The description of each peak includes typical latencies, cortical distributions, and possible brain sources of observed activity as well as the evoking paradigms and underlying psychological processes. The review is intended to serve as a tutorial for general readers interested in neuropsychological research and as a reference source for researchers using ERP techniques.

Validation of the Emotiv EPOC® EEG gaming system for measuring research quality auditory ERPs

TL;DR: The gaming EEG system may prove a valid alternative to laboratory ERP systems for recording reliable late auditory ERPs over the frontal cortices, and less reliable ERPs, such as the MMN, if the reliability of such ERPs can be boosted to the same level as late auditoryERPs.

Brief training with co-speech gesture lends a hand to word learning in a foreign language

TL;DR: The authors found that words learned with gesture produced a larger Late Positive Complex (indexing recollection) in bi-lateral parietal sites than words learned without gestures, and showed that the greatest word learning occurred when gestures conveyed redundant imagistic information to speech.

Beyond perceptual symbols: a call for representational pluralism.

TL;DR: A number of weaknesses are identified in arguments supporting the centrality of perceptual representations to concepts and a multiple semantic code approach is defended that posits both perceptual and non-perceptual representations.

The neurophysiological bases of EEG and EEG measurement: a review for the rest of us

TL;DR: The present paper addresses the neurophysiological source of EEG, propagation of the EEG signal, technical aspects of EEG measurement, and implications for interpretation of EEG data.

The Fusiform Face Area: A Module in Human Extrastriate Cortex Specialized for Face Perception

TL;DR: The data allow us to reject alternative accounts of the function of the fusiform face area (area “FF”) that appeal to visual attention, subordinate-level classification, or general processing of any animate or human forms, demonstrating that this region is selectively involved in the perception of faces.

Reading senseless sentences: brain potentials reflect semantic incongruity

TL;DR: In a sentence reading task, words that occurred out of context were associated with specific types of event-related brain potentials that elicited a late negative wave (N400).

Is the P300 component a manifestation of context updating

TL;DR: The amplitude of the P300 component is controlled multiplicatively by the subjective probability and task relevance of eliciting events, whereas its latency depends on the duration of stimulus evaluation as mentioned in this paper.

Speed of processing in the human visual system.

TL;DR: The visual processing needed to perform this highly demanding task can be achieved in under 150 ms, and ERP analysis revealed a frontal negativity specific to no-go trials that develops roughly 150 ms after stimulus onset.
