Randomized trial assesses EEG markers of cognitive control in adolescents, indicating potential neurocognitive risks.
Key Points
This research aims to evaluate the reliability of EEG markers related to cognitive control and explore their associations with sociodemographic factors.
Population-based sample of 2994 adolescents and emerging adults (M age = 18.4 years)
Assessment of EEG markers during Go/No-Go tasks using reliability analyses: split-half reliability, Cronbach's Alpha, and Pearson's correlations
Linear regression models to analyze associations between EEG parameters and sociodemographic variables.
Moderate reliability was observed for ERN (CA ≥ 0.6 with 9/10 errors), Pe (7 errors), and No-Go N2/P3 (15 trials)
Strong associations found between Full Scale IQ estimate and larger Pe, No-Go P3, and midfrontal theta power
Female participants exhibited larger ERN and No-Go N2 compared to male participants.
