Figure 2

Comparison of ERPs between the deception and truth conditions. Top panel: scalp topographies of MFN and RLP waves are displayed at their peak latencies (MFN: 126 ms; RLP: 264 ms). The enlarged white dots indicate electrodes with significant differences. Middle panel: group average waves at three fronto-central electrodes (Fz, FCz and Cz) are shown. Compared with the truthful response (blue), the deceptive response (red) had a significantly larger MFN and smaller RLP. Bottom panel: PCA results of MFN and RLP. There was a significant increase in MFN and a significant decrease in RLP in the deceptive response compared to the truthful response. The light yellow bar and light green bar in the middle panel represent the time range of MFN (110–150 ms) and RLP (240–280 ms), respectively.
