Developmental sex-specific change in auditory–vocal integration: ERP evidence in children

Highlights ► Girls aged 13–15 years produced larger P2 amplitudes than girls aged 10–12 years, and girls aged 13–15 years produced shorter P2 latencies than boys of the same age. ► P1 amplitudes became smaller as 10–15 year-old children increased in age, while N1 amplitudes varied as function of sex...

Description
Summary:Highlights ► Girls aged 13–15 years produced larger P2 amplitudes than girls aged 10–12 years, and girls aged 13–15 years produced shorter P2 latencies than boys of the same age. ► P1 amplitudes became smaller as 10–15 year-old children increased in age, while N1 amplitudes varied as function of sex such that they were larger for boys than for girls. ► There is a sex-specific development in the cortical processing of auditory–vocal integration in normally developing school-aged children.
