1. A method of determining the cognitive response to personally meaningful information of a subject to a repeatedly presented significant guilty knowledge stimulus or stimuli interspersed with nonsignificant stimuli comprising:
- (a) providing a source of stipulation to the subject, including said guilty knowledge and said nonsignificant stimuli;
(b) providing detection means for detecting event related potentials;
(c) translating event related potentials to P300 brain waves;
(d) obtaining P300 brain wave activity; and
(e) analyzing said P300 brain wave activity for guilty knowledge detection.

Abstract
A method for recording and analyzing event-related potentials (ERP), and their respective P300 brain wave responses from a repeatedly presented guilty knowledge or control question stimulus interspersed with non-significant stimuli. A computer is utilized to interpret and analyze the responses for guilty knowledge and control question procedures.
