Abstract

This study examines neural responses to visual stimuli under Near and Far flanker conditions using EEG. Fifty participants (25 per condition) completed a visual task with closely or distantly positioned distractors. EEG data were analyzed using spectrograms, wavelet transformation, and neural firing rate estimation. Standard preprocessing techniques ensured data quality, and statistical tests assessed differences between conditions. Findings provide insight into how spatial stimulus configurations affect neural processing and attention.

The purpose of the Study was to assess the brain's response to visual stimuli given the Far and Near Flanker Conditions, with a supporting hypothesis of substantial differences in neuronal firing rates between the two conditions. This study had both Strengths and Limitations that we have addressed.
