摘要:

At the last meeting of this Society, evidence was presented for intrafiber volleying by units in the superior‐olivary complex of cat. These results showed that an auditory unit could discharge during monaural tonal stimulation with interspike intervals that are equal to and multiples of the period of the stimulating tone up to about 2.0 kc/sec. Because these data were obtained with only a 20‐channel data processor, long interspike intervals were unobtainable and were lost, therefore, in an overflow basket. By utilizing a computer (CAT) with 400 memory addresses, it has been possible in recent studies to retrieve most of the data with a resolution of 78 μsec. These preliminary findings show that interspike intervals that are many multiples of the period of the tone occur during stimulation. At 1.0 kc/sec, for instance, spikes occur at time intervals of 1, 2, 3, 4, …, to 30 msec and at 0.5 kc/sec the intervals are 2, 4, 6, 8, …, to 16 msec. The intervals, in both instances, are multiples of the period of the tone. The periodicity upon stimulation evidenced by these units, which are at least two synapses from the periphery, suggests that temporal analysis of information is maintained to at least this level of the auditory pathway.
