[Analysis of changes in the electrical activity of the neocortex in dogs during the formation of the stereotype of food-procuring conditioned reflexes in them].
A system of food-procuring conditioned reflexes (dynamic stereotype after I.P. Pavlov) was elaborated in dogs. In the interstimuli periods, 0.6 to 0.8 sec. prior the action of the conditioned stimulus, they exhibited a "state of expectancy" characterized by an increase of frequency (up to 80 per sec.) of potential oscillations of a small amplitude (20 to 30 mcv) and their pronounced sychroneity, predominantly in the anterior parts of the neocortex. The conditioned signal acting against such background produced specific reactions in the form of a limited number of bursts (3 to 4 in 0.5 sec.) of highfrequency (up to 100 per sec.) synchronized activity (HSA) of considerable amplitude (50 to 60 mcv) which always preceded conditioned reactions, being in certain temporal relations with them. A correlation-spectral analysis has shown that in the HSA period, electrical activity became considerably more regular; in the intensity spectra the extreme frequencies of the analyzed band (5 to 7 c/s and 90 to 100 c/s) became prominent, and in most cases high values of the coherence function were due to them. HSA reactions are regarded as a major link in the trigger mechanism of conditioned food-procuring reactions.
