To characterize the hemodynamic responses of mismatch negativity, we measured BOLD signals elicited by frequent and infrequent sequences of sounds using fast fMRI acquisitions with 0.1 s precision. The average temporal width of the hemodynamic responses was 4.2 s in the superior temporal areas. The width of hemodynamic responses was significantly wider in the standard (4.9 s +/- 1.1 s) than the deviant trials (3.6 s +/- 1.7 s).
