Cell sizes were too small for the computation of multivariate T2 statistics (i.e., less than the 67 channels included in the EEG montage; cf. Maris, 2004) to evaluate overall topographic old/new effects for each group, but this constraint does not apply to the calculation of the corresponding univariate max(T2) statistics. As can be seen from Figure 6(C–F, columns 4), the observed old/new effects of both factors were also present for each group in both tasks, although to different degrees. For word stimuli, the early mid-frontal and mid-occipitoparietal old/new effects (factor 442) were highly comparable across groups (Figure 6C), whereas the late left parietal old/new effects (factor 723) appeared to be more robust in controls compared with patients (Figure 6D). For faces, however, early mid-frontal (Figure 6E) and late left parietal old/new effects (Figure 6F) were equally strong in patients and controls.
