Responsive or nonresponsive type of stimulus-selective neurons in the PER and POR
Brain region | Coding stimulus type | Responsive (plus sign in GLM) | Nonresponsive (minus sign in GLM) |
---|---|---|---|
PER | Object | 11 (65%) | 6 (35%) |
Scene | 7 (50%) | 7 (50%) | |
POR | Object | 6 (75%) | 2 (25%) |
Scene | 4 (44%) | 5 (56%) |
Stimulus-selective neurons showed either the responsive or nonresponsive type of firing for a specific stimulus. The type was determined by the sign of β-coefficient in the GLM of each neuron. Stimulus-selective neurons with plus signs are responsive (i.e., high firing rates to a preferred stimulus), and the ones with minus signs are nonresponsive (i.e., low firing rates to a preferred stimulus) types.
