title: Evoked potential-unit relationships in behaving cats.
abstract: Adult cats were implanted with a movable microelectrode, and trained to respond differentially to two different frequencies of light flicker. Unit responses and evoked potentials were recorded along trajectories in the visual cortex and lateral geniculate nucleus. Although strong correlations are shown to exist between certain components of the evoked potential and peaks in the poststimulus histogram, it is demonstrated that it is impossible to specify a causal, predictive relationship.
