Abstract:In order to investigate the picture superiority effect, we compared the ERP between picture combined word (picture-word) and pure word (word) during encoding and retrieval. During encoding, FN400 was more negative and lasted longer for picture-word than for word. Late positive component (LPC) was more positive and distributed broadly for word compared to picture-word. During retrieval, old picture-word elicited remarkably FN400 familiarity effect and parietal old/new effect compared to old word. We suggested that simultaneous image and verbal encoding of picture-word elicited better and faster recollection compared to word during the memory test. Our results demonstrated that the picture superiority effect was related to the ability of pictures enhancing encoding and facilitating recollection.
