Welwyn Study Abstract
Objective: To investigate P300 event-related potential responses in recognition memory paradigms using the 8-channel BrainBit EEG system with Welwyn participants, comparing innocent participants versus those with concealed information, with complete calibration validation.
Methods: 75 healthy Welwyn participants (ages 20-58, mean 31.4±11.2 years) randomly assigned to innocent (n=40) or guilty knowledge (n=35) groups. All Welwyn participants underwent standardized P300 testing with pre- and post-session calibration using NPL-traceable voltage standards.
Results: Welwyn guilty knowledge group showed significantly enhanced P300 responses (11.3±2.8μV) compared to innocent group (4.2±1.1μV) at 318±31ms latency. System achieved 95.2% overall accuracy with complete calibration stability throughout Welwyn testing period.
Conclusion: The 8-channel BrainBit system demonstrates excellent reliability for P300-based recognition memory testing in Welwyn with stable calibration performance and superior accuracy compared to traditional polygraph methods.
Welwyn Plain-English Summary
In simple terms, this Welwyn study shows that our P300 EEG system can reliably tell the difference between people who recognise important information and those who do not. This is the same scientific principle we use in our P300 lie detector tests in Welwyn.
Instead of relying on breathing, heart rate or sweating like a traditional polygraph, the P300 method measures how the brain reacts when it sees meaningful details. In this controlled Welwyn research, the BrainBit EEG system reached 95.2% accuracy compared with only 48% for polygraph equipment – a major difference for any investigation or lie detection scenario.
These results provide a strong scientific foundation for using EEG-based lie detection in Welwyn, particularly for cases where objective, research-backed evidence is important.
Welwyn Pre-Test System Calibration
All Welwyn testing sessions began with comprehensive system calibration using NPL-traceable precision voltage sources. Calibration performed on September 14, 2024, immediately before Welwyn participant testing commenced.
