Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Difficulty in both semantic and syntactic processing is indicated by both an N400 and a P600. The N400 is a negative waveform that occurs around 400 milliseconds after a word is presented and is associated with semantic processing difficulties. The P600 is a positive waveform that occurs around 600 milliseconds after a word is presented and is associated with syntactic processing difficulties. Therefore, the best choice is D, N400 and P600.
