Abstract:Squirrel monkeys were fitted permanently with rigid depth electrodes having tips localized in the auditory nerve region and with screw-type electrodes fixed on the surface of the parietal brain area (“vertex”). Summed records of pure-tone evoked potentials were recorded from both electrode sites using either a digital or an analog signal averager. Compared with cortical AERs, nerve evoked potentials showed greater amplitudes, greater resistance to habituation, less test-retest variability, and were characteriz… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
