The difference between lexical classes in the present experiment might also be related to the degree of semantic associativeness between the first and second items of a pair.
The latter studies investigated auditory phonological and lexical-semantic decision in a context where both sustained attention (processing only the first item of a pair and releasing attention or processing the two items of a pair) and levels of linguistic processing (focusing on phonological, grammatical or semantic properties of stimuli) were manipulated.
These measures indicate how similar the modality profiles of the two items of a pair are.
Because the similarity measure is based on the full modality profile, it is more sensitive to subtle differences between the items of a pair than when one only takes into account the dominant modalities.

The N1 was delayed and reduced after the second item of a pair when participants released their attention.
(2) When the first item of a pair was incongruent with the target category, participants could respond "no" immediately without waiting for the second item (release condition).
Release of sustained attention also reduced a P3 wave elicited by the first item of a pair and abolished the P3 wave elicited by the second.
Interestingly, the P1/N1 complex was observed after the presentation of the second item of a pair in both the hold and release conditions.
Interestingly, in the present experiment, the time interval between items 1 and 2 was not different from intervals traditionally used in Go/No-go paradigms: After responding to the first item of a pair, participants had to release their attention.
In sum, after the presentation of the second item of a pair, P1', N1' and P3' latencies and mean amplitudes were unaffected by lexical categorization focus (i.e., by the lexical status of the target).
In sum, the processing of the first item of a pair was unaffected by sustained attention or lexical categorization focus during the first 150 ms (i.e. during the P1/N1 complex).

Since I tried Ludwig back in 2017, I have been constantly using it in both editing and translation. Ever since, I suggest it to my translators at ProSciEditing.
