[Eeglablist] components direction in CNT and EEGLAB

[Ruud Kalis]

Dear Malahat, 

The default setting in the ASA software is with negative polarity up. There is a possibility to switch between negative and positive up. Since this does not concern EEGLAB, I will send you a separate email with instructions how to perform this. 

Best regards,
Ruud

Dear Malahat,

some researchers like to visualize ERP with negative polarity up. You can do it as well in EEGLAB but this is not the default. I think this is where you confusion comes from. There has been heated debates as to wether this old convention (negative going up) should be kept. It is tending to disappear slowly.

Best regards,

Arno

My EEG records were by ANT and I sure the direction of P300 in down , but after we processing these signals with EEGLAB is it possible the direction were changed, is it possible that  in EEGLAB  codes  that changed the direction of ANT or CNT files as a standard forms (ex P300 showed in up direction)?  I really confused and check all possible events but the cons and pons are equal.appreciate any help.
