Abstract: | Power spectral (in the broad frequency band of 1-225 Hz) of short-term (less than 1 s) EEG reactions were studied in dogs in the course of instrumental food conditioning. These reactions appeared in different cortical areas in response to differentiating signals under conditions of both adequate and erroneous responses. The EEG power of such reactions was several times lower as compared to responses to positive signals, mainly, at the expense of the frequencies in the band of 90-225 Hz (the power of which was higher than that of the traditional band of 1-30 Hz and the gamma band of 30-80 Hz). The frequency composition of EEG reactions accompanying adequate responses was defined, mainly, by discrete subgroups of high-frequency components. During erroneous responses, the discrete structure of the corresponding EEG reactions was broken. |
