Title: [Analysis of the stability of rabbit visual cortex neuron spike responses to light flashes]. Author: Chursina IKh. Journal: Zh Vyssh Nerv Deiat Im I P Pavlova; 1979; 29(1):151-8. PubMed ID: 433436. Abstract: The stability of neuronal responses in the rabbit visual cortex to diffuse photic flashes presented in series with sufficiently long time intervals between them was studied in acute experiments. Three types of neuronal responses with different degree of stability were singled out. The stability was judged by the mean coefficient of correlation between post-stimulus histograms of spike activity. Negative correlations were found between the mean correlation coefficient and mean square deviations of latencies of primary and secondary activation and the pause in impulse activity in neuronal responses to a photic flash. Positive correlations between primary activation latencies and mean square deviations of other response parameters suggest a greater stability of responses with a short latency.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
