[The neuronal reactions of the parietal associative cortex (area 5) in the cat during internal inhibition of the instrumental food reflex].

Neuronal responses of the parietal associative cortex were studied in cat during differentiation, extinction and conditional inhibition of the placing reflex. It has been shown that this cortical area is involved in triggering and realization of the conditioned movement.

[Responses of the neurons of the parietal associative cortex of the cat brain to indifferent and conditioned acoustic stimuli].

Neuronal responses of the associative cortex (field 5) to indifferent and to conditioned sound stimuli were studied. The number of neurons responding to the conditioned sound during classical reflex increased two times. A percentage of inhibitory responses of neurons to conditioned acoustic stimulus during placing reflex grew.

[Reactions of neurons of the parietal association cortex (field 5) of the cat brain during the performance of conditioned reflex movement].

Responses of 160 neurons of the cat parietal cortex were studied during food instrumental reflex (placing reaction). 49% of them changed the discharge frequency before the movement initiation. Activation responses prevailed.
