| Abstract: | EEG waves phase relations in the sensorimotor and visual cortical areas were studied in 12 rabbits before and during a motor reaction in response to light stimulation. Phase relations in the background activity were characterized by a considerable dispersion (from 26 to 45 degrees). Light stimulation increased the quantity of synphasic EEG oscillations in adjacent cortical points and stabilized the phase shift between EEG waves in the sensorimotor and visual cortical areas. Motor reactions of rabbits to light occurred when theta-rhythm with the most constant phase shift was observed in the EEG of these areas. |
