RT Journal Article T1 An event-related potentials study of face naming: Evidence of phonological retrieval deficit in the tip-of-the-tongue state A1 Buján Mera, Ana A1 Galdo Álvarez, Santiago A1 Lindín Novo, Mónica A1 Díaz Fernández, Fernando K1 Cognition K1 Language/Speech K1 Learning/Memory K1 Normal volunteers K1 EEG/ERP AB A famous-face naming task was used to establish the electrophysiological characterization of the tip-of-the-tongue (TOT) state, successful naming (K), and nonrecognition (DK). The differences in the direct event-related potentials (ERPs) and in the lateralized readiness potential between those categories were studied. The ERP correlates of recognition and access to semantic and lexical information were similar between K and TOT, but showed amplitude differences with respect to DK. A delayed onset of the response selection was obtained in TOT in comparison with K, suggesting an insufficient activation of phonological information from 360 ms onwards. The continuous search for the name and the conflict monitoring in TOT led to differences in ERP amplitudes between TOT and the other categories from 750 ms onwards as well as to a delayed onset of response preparation, indicating a continuous engagement of processing resources.
