PG  - 308-16
AB  - We investigated the temporal dependencies of N100 m, the most prominent 
      deflection of the auditory evoked response, using whole-head neuromagnetic 
      recordings. Stimuli were presented singly or in pairs (tones in the pair were 
      separated by 210 ms) at interstimulus intervals (ISIs) of 0.6-8.1 s. N100 m to 
      single stimuli and to the first tone of the pair had similar temporal recovery 
      functions, plateauing at ISIs of 6 s. N100 m to the second tone in the pair, 
      which was smaller than that to the first except with short ISIs, plateaued with 
      ISIs of about 4 s. Source analysis revealed that the N100 m could be decomposed 
      into two sources separated by about 1 cm on the supratemporal plane. The recovery 
      function of the posterior source was not affected by stimulus presentation, 
      whereas that of the anterior source was. Activity in the anterior area appears to 
      reflect the effects of temporal integration. We relate these results to auditory 
      sensory memory.
