Abstract: This article deals with the investigation of cognitive processes by means of noninvasively recording and analyzing physiological signals, especially event-related brain potentials. First, the field of Cognitive Psychophysiology is outlined and its historical development is described with an emphasis on contributions by German-speaking researchers. Then some principles of cognitive-psychophysiological research strategies are explained and illustrated with examples of work conducted by the author and his colleagues.
