There was a main effect of go/no-go condition, F(1, 35) = 110.64, p \u003c 0.001, ηp2=0.76, and a Cultural group × Go/no-go condition interaction, F(1, 35) = 5.4, p \u003c 0.05, ηp2=0.13. Examination of means revealed that for both cultural groups, left-minus-right difference scores were positive for no-go trials (Chinese M = 6.98, SE = 0.98; European M = 4.39, SE = 0.91), reflecting larger (i.e., more negative) amplitudes on the right, and negative for go trials (Chinese M = −2.57, SE = 0.72; European M = −1.72, SE = 0.67), reflecting larger (i.e., more negative) amplitudes on the left. Pairwise comparisons indicated that the effect of go/no-go condition was significant for both cultural groups, but that the size of this effect was larger for the Chinese-Canadian participants, ηp2=0.69 than for the European-Canadian participants, ηp2=0.51. These findings suggest that the N2 was more strongly lateralized (to the left for go trials and to the right for no-go trials) for the Chinese-Canadian participants.","tracks":[]}
