Abstract: "[Investigators] examined call and pitch selectivity of single neurons within the basolateral amygdala (BLA) by recording spiking activity in response to 5 pitch variants of each of 14 species-specific calls presented to awake, head-restrained mustached bats, Pteronotus parnellii." |

P.2394 caption to table 1: "Means, SD, and ranges for call-response measurements made from basolateral amygdala (BLA) neurons. Response latencies, magnitudes, and durations were averaged across significant call responses for a given neuron before averaging each measure across neurons, thus giving each neuron an equal weighting despite differences in the number of call responses across neurons. Excitatory and inhibitory response magnitudes and durations were calculated separately. Excitatory durations reflect the longest continuous interval that the spike density function exceeded 2 SD above the spontaneous spike density. Inhibitory durations were calculated in a similar manner (see MATERIALS AND METHODS for details). Response magnitudes are expressed as the change in the mean spike rate over the whole 250-ms interval following stimulus onset and are reported for units with evoked mean firing rates greater than (n = 69) or less than (n = 16) spontaneous (P < 0.01, Wilcoxon rank sum text)." |
