| Abstract |
The negative peak occurring approximately 160 ms after stimulation (peak N(160)) of flash evoked potentials (FEPs) of rats changes with repeated testing. Habituation, sensitization, and arousal have all been invoked to explain these changes, but few studies have directly tested these explanations. The authors examined within-session changes in peak N(160) amplitutde with repeated testing, and the modulatory effects of stimulus intensity and auditory white noise. Peak N(160) amplitude underwent within-session increases on early days and within-session decreases on later days. The within-session changes were not affected by stimulus intensity. The data suggest that the within-session changes in peak N(160) amplitude may reflect a habituation-like response to the test environment. (Copyright (c) 1993 Pergamon Press Ltd.) |
