Title: [Interaction between two excitation foci in the central nervous system capable for summation]. Author: Pavlygina RA, Rusinova EV, Roshchina GIa, Malikova AK. Journal: Zh Vyssh Nerv Deiat Im I P Pavlova; 2000; 50(4):590-9. PubMed ID: 10984903. Abstract: The interaction between two dominant foci was carried out on different models of dominant. It was shown that the following pairs: latent motor and blinking excitation foci; hunger and hypnotic dominants, decaying polarization dominant (related with functioning of the left-hemisphere) and hypnotic dominant can function simultaneously. After repeated formation of a new dominant focus against the background of the existing stable dominant created earlier, a replacement of dominants takes place. This process passes through the stage of formation of the latent dominant not yet apparent at the behavioral level but with the electrical activity typical for the dominant focus. Actually, two dominants exist at this stage: the previous active and latent foci. The latter determines further behavior of the animal.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
