Orr1 and Melisa Carrasco2 1Department of Psychology and 2Neuroscience Program, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109 Next Section Introduction Goal-directed behavior relies on the error related ability to detect errors and to correct the action(s) that led to the error. Research on error detection really took off with the discovery almost 20 years ago of two event-related potential (ERP) components found within the human EEG: the error-related negativity [ERN; or error negativity (Ne)] and the error positivity (Pe) (Falkenstein et al., 1991; Gehring et al., 1993). The ERN is a error related negativity negative deflection that peaks ∼50–80 ms after an erroneous button press. The Pe is a positive deflection that peaks ∼100–200 ms after an erroneous button press. While most research has focused on the role of the ERN in error detection, recent research is beginning to uncover the function of the Pe. Several influential theories have been put forth to explain the computation underlying the ERN (Coles et al., 2001; Holroyd and Coles, 2002; Yeung et al., 2004). Specifically, the ERN has been proposed to reflect either competition between the erroneous and correct response representations (Yeung et al., 2004), a mismatch between the actual and expected correct response (Coles et al., 2001), or the result of less-than-expected reward outcomes (Holroyd and Coles, 2002). Thus, the ERN appears to represent an internal signal that an error is likely or has occurred. However, these theories fail to account for the role of the Pe in error detection. Nevertheless, research has begun to identify conditions that modulate this ERP component (Overbeek et al., 2005). The most consistent finding is that the Pe is generally larger on trials where participants are consciously

Next Section Abstract Learning from past mistakes is of prominent importance for successful future behavior. In the present study, we tested whether reinforcement learning signals in the brain are predictive of adequate learning of a sequence of motor actions. We recorded event-related potentials (ERPs) while subjects engaged in a sequence learning task. The results showed that brain responses to feedback (the feedback-related negativity [FRN]) predicted whether subjects learned to avoid an erroneous response the next time this action had to be performed. Our findings add to a growing literature on feedback-based performance adjustment, by showing that FRN amplitudes may reflect the acquisition of motor skill and the consolidation of contingencies between stimuli or cues and their associated responses, providing evidence that learning efficiency and future performance can be predicted by the neural response to current feedback: FRN amplitude associated with a mistake is predictive of whether this mistake will be repeated, or learned from.

These people have learned from (often bitter) experience the consequences of their actions and are therefore now a
