Abstract:
This thesis comprises two areas of study. The first study examined the effect of the menstrual cycle on Event-Related Potentials (ERPs) and verbal memory, as measured by paragraph recall and paired associates, and mood, as assessed by the Profile of Mood States (POMS) Inventory. The Cambridge Automated Neuropsychological Test Battery (CANTAB) was also deployed to investigate the effect of the menstrual cycle on visual memory and attention. The second study concerned the effect of emotional content of words on recognition memory in terms of age and gender. This was examined using ERPs and behavioural tests (percentage correct and free recall).
