Latency of Auditory Event-Related Potential P3 Correlates with Forward Digit Span in an Alaskan Subarctic Sample

16 normal women (ages 25 to 80 years) who could remember more numbers on the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale Forward Digit Span subtest had significantly longer mean latency for the auditory event-related potential P3 waveform than those persons who could remember fewer numbers.
