摘　　要：Event-related potentials(ERPs)are a non-invasive neuro-electrophysiological technique that offers high resolution,real-time continuous measurements,as well as multidimensional probing capabilities,of the temple area of the head.These features enable precise,real-time brain activity measurements,making ERPs a preferred tool for linguistic researchers over the past five decades.This paper reviews the ERP applications and their significance in Second Language Acquisition(SLA)research.By analyzing the cognitive changes in the bilingual language processing mechanisms and language switching processes during SLA,this paper aims to demonstrate how ERPs provide in-depth insights into the cognitive mechanisms of SLA.In addition,this paper explores the prospects for ERP applications and the directions for their technological advancement in China.
