“…Similar results are observed when no binning of the data is performed (exponential model: F 2,185 = 8.3, P = 0.005; BIC = 366.4; linear model: F 1,186 = 0.8, P = 0.38; BIC = 368.6). The findings are similar to a recent study that recapitulated the behavior of macaque monkeys on an evidence-varying decision-making task following intramuscular administration of a subanesthetic dose of ketamine by reducing the strength of the couplings to the excitatory population from the local excitatory population ( ) by 1.75% to achieve a global reduction of E/I ratio ( Cavanagh et al, 2019 ). This is consistent with the NMDA-receptor hypofunction hypothesis of schizophrenia ( Corlett et al, 2011 ; Kehrer et al, 2008 ; Krystal et al, 2003 ; Lisman et al, 2008 ; Olney and Farber, 1995 ), and the use of ketamine as a model of schizophrenia ( Becker et al, 2003 ; Corlett et al, 2011 ; Frohlich and Van Horn, 2014 ; Krystal et al, 1994 ).…”
