This study is to investigate the electrophysiological correlation with the psychological processing of self-referential stimulus using a self-relevant word in concurrent task-irrelevant affective background music. The results showed that P300 amplitudes elicited by individual self-referential stimulus were larger than those elicited by collective self-referential stimulus and non-self-referential stimulus. Besides, the individual self-referential stimulus under the collectivistic affective music evoked larger P300 than under individualistic affective music. However, there was on significant P300 differences caused by the collective self-referential stimulus between individualistic affective music and collectivistic affective music. Therefore, the present study, using ERPs measures, extended previous findings by providing evidence supporting the existence of a collective self-referential effect. Moreover, our findings also found that although individual self-referential stimulus was processed better and deeper, it was more susceptible to context. The psychological process varies in different contexts, which shows the instability feature.
