Visual evoked potentials (VEP) in standard 16 EEG derivations were recorded in 26 young men and 20 women during recognition of facial emotional expressions and geometric figures. The stimuli were presented on a computer screen in the center of the visual field or randomly in the right or left vision hemifields. Peak VEP latency and mean amplitude in 50-ms epochs were measured; spatiotemporal VEP dynamics was analyzed in a series of topographic maps.

Behavioral and neurophysiological characteristics of a visual recognition of emotions of joy, anger, and fear were studied in 9 young healthy men and 10 women. It was shown that these emotions were identified by subjects with different rate and accuracy; significant gender differences in recognition of anger and fear were found. Recording of visual evoked potentials (VEP) from the occipital (O1/2), medial temporal (T3/4), inferior temporal (T5/6), and frontal (F3/4) areas revealed differences (related with the type of emotion) in the latencies of P150, N180, P250, and N350 waves and in the amplitude of VEP components with the latencies longer than 250 ms.
