[Correlations among cortical potentials in the dog during the elaboration of motor alimentary conditioned reflexes].
Background electrocortical activity in a frequency band of 1-100 Hz of dogs with electrodes implanted in different neocortical areas was studied before and after elaboration of motor (lever pressing) alimentary conditioned responses. Conditioning led to a significant change of the distribution histograms of cross-correlation coefficients (CC) between the cortical potentials, i. e. the dispersion of CC values decreased and the level of correlation changed as well. In more tranquil animals (with lower CC values before conditioning) the level of correlation significantly increased, in excitable ones (with higher CC values before conditioning) it decreased. CC distributions after the conditioned response elaboration became similar in both cases apparently indicating the formation of a uniform state characteristic for the type of a conditioned response under study.
