Magnitude and timing of conditioned responses in delay and trace classical conditioning of the nictitating membrane response of the rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus).

29 Sep 2009 The present experiment characterized conditioned nictitating membrane (NM) movements as a function of CS duration, using the full range of discernible movements (>.06 mm) rather than movements exceeding a conventional criterion (>.50 mm). The CS-US ... Read more...

Discriminative conditioning with different CS-US intervals produces temporally differentiated conditioned responses in the two eyes of the rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus).

29 Sep 2009 The conditioned eyeblink response (CR) in rabbits is lateralized to the eye targeted by the unconditioned stimulus (US). However, a contralateral component has been reported during concurrent discriminative conditioning of the two eyes. The authors ... Read more...

Dynamic associations in the cerebellar-motoneuron network during motor learning.

24 Aug 2009 We assessed here true causal directionalities in cerebellar-motoneuron (MN) network associations during the classical conditioning of eyelid responses. For this, the firing activities of identified facial MNs and cerebellar interpositus (IP) nucleus ... Read more...
