Spatial attentional shifts: Further evidence for the role of polysensory mechanisms using visual and tactile stimuli
(Elsevier, 1989)
Normal subjects performed simple reaction time responses to lateralized visual target stimuli (Experiment 1) and lateralized tactile target stimuli (Experiment 2). In each experiment, the lateralized targets were preceded ...
Detection of masked patterns in monkeys with inferotemporal, striate or dorsolateral frontal lesions
(Elsevier, 1972-07)
Monkeys with lateral striate (LS) lesions, inferotemporal (IT) lesions or dorsolateral frontal (DLF) lesions were trained to discriminate between two visual patterns before and after the patterns were masked with irrelevant ...
Primate basal ganglia activity in a precued reaching task: preparation for movement
(Springer-Verlag, 1993-07)
Single cell activity was recorded from the primate putamen, caudate nucleus, and globus pallidus during a precued reaching movement task. Two monkeys were trained to touch one of several target knobs mounted in front of ...
Inner ear implants for experimental electrical stimulation of auditory nerve arrays
(Elsevier, 1989-06)
Electrode arrays chronically implanted in the inner ear are gaining increased use for experimental studies of the auditory nervous system, as well as for studies related to development of improved auditory prostheses. ...
An inability of [gamma]-acetylenic GABA to block eating evoked by hypothalamic stimulation
(Elsevier, 1980-08)
Several lines of evidence have implicated the nigrostriatal dopamine system and the neocortex for eating occurring either spontaneously or in response to electrical stimulation of the lateral hypothalamus (ESLH). GABA-ergic ...
Strategic modulation of the fixation-offset effect: dissociable effects of target probability on prosaccades and antisaccades
(Springer-Verlag, 2005-07)
In several previous experiments examining the effects of participants’ expectations on oculomotor performance, the manipulation of target probability has been confounded with factors such as target occurrence and saccade ...
Cortex, striatum and cerebellum: control of serial order in a grooming sequence
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-verlag, 1992-08)
Rats emit grooming actions in sequences that follow characteristic patterns of serial order. One of these patterns, a syntactic chain, has a particularly stereotyped order that recurs spontaneously during grooming thousands ...
Auditory cues and inhibition of return: the importance of oculomotor activation
(Springer-Verlag, 1996-11)
We studied the effects of eccentric auditory cues to clarify the conditions that evoke inhibition of return (IOR). We found that auditory cues positioned 12° to the left or right of midline failed to produce IOR whereas ...
Enhancing high-speed digitization of single-unit neuronal activity on a microcomputer using a hybrid software-hardware technique
(Elsevier, 1989-06)
A new data acquisition technique allows a microcomputer simultaneously to digitize spikes at high rates, analyze spike waveforms for computer-based spike separation and manage other control tasks. The technique has two key ...
Individual behavioral responses to hypothalamic stimulation persist despite destruction of tissue surrounding electrode tip
(Elsevier, 1979-09)
Behavior evoked by hypothalamic stimulation differs among animals, although their electrode placements appear histologically to be identical. These differences have been attributed to selective activation of functionally ...
