The main aim of the current study is to analyze ORN and ORP components of a single outcome gambling task (without the complexity and confound of the error/correct aspect) in the context of several key factors/dimensions, viz., loss/gain, 50/10, gender, impulsivity and behavioral measures. Our study therefore has been designed with the following objectives: 1) to analyze the ORN and ORP components in the context of valence (loss/gain) and amount (50/10) of outcomes, 2) to see the areas of neural activity (in terms of topography of surface potentials and current density) during different task conditions, 3) to analyze the behavioral and impulsivity variables that may be correlated with ORN and ORP, and 4) to evaluate gender differences, if any, in the ERP waveforms, topography, current density, and behavioral/impulsivity measures. Based on the previous findings and views, the hypotheses of the present study were four-fold: 1) the gain conditions will produce higher amplitude and shorter latency than the loss conditions in ORN and ORP components, 2) the larger amount will produce higher amplitude than the smaller amount in ORN and ORP
