Figure 2

N100 amplitude correlates with ratings of authenticity and arousal, while P200 and LPC amplitudes correlate with trait empathy measures (p < 0.05). Top: visualisation of statistically significant repeated measures correlations between ERP amplitudes and stimulus ratings. Each participant is represented by two points on the graph, corresponding to trial-averaged N100 amplitude/scores in response to authentic and acted crying vocalisations. Bottom: visualisation of significant correlations between ERP amplitudes and trait empathy scores. Green shaded area corresponds to 95% confidence interval. Note that higher score in the emphatic difficulties sub-measure means lower emphatic difficulty.
