Abstract

Short (N 21−P 27) and long (N 130−P 200) latency somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) and personality [Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ) and a short-form Sensation Seeking scale (SS)] were investigated in 26 young healthy adults. Various modes of analysis were carried out on the SEPs, including peak-to-peak, root mean square, absolute area and perimeter measures, over various time windows. The amount of SEP variance accounted for by personality correlations depended on the mode of analysis. High Psychoticism and high Sensation Seeking (and to some extent high Extraversion) correlated negatively with measures of SEP amplitude, the relationship being stronger for later SEP components.
