In a 2014 oddball study, the Schroder found that Compared to controls, individuals with misophonia showed a reduced N1 peak amplitude, with no group differences in N1 peak latency. There were also no group differences in P1 or P2 amplitudes or latencies, and no interaction between group and deviant tone type for any component. A main effect of tone was observed across components: low deviants elicited larger P1 amplitudes than high deviants, smaller N1 amplitudes than high deviants, and higher P1 overall. Additionally, N1 latency was shorter for high deviants. Finally, there were no group differences in either average amplitude or peak latency for responses to the standard tone across any component (Schröder et al., 2014)

Results bulleted

• reduced N1 peak amplitude  in Misophonics compared to controls
•  no differences in peak N1 latency
• no differences in P1 or P2 amplitude or latencies
• no interaction between group and deviant tones were found
• main effect of tone for all components
    • low deviant = larger P1 compared to high deviant
    • low deviant = smaller N1 then high deviant
    • low deviant = higher P1
• N1 had shorter latency for the higher deviant
• no difference in average amplitude /peak latency for any component  responses from the standard tone between the groups.
