Computational modeling parameters and explanations

OSNτ = 1 ms; Vrest = −65 mV; θmin = −65 mV; θmax = −55 mV

Unless otherwise specified, neural parameters were chosen based on previous OB models to stay consistent. All synaptic weights and threshold parameters are chosen from a uniform distribution ±10% around the average given here. Reversal potentials are based on experimental results. Time constants are meant to reproduce those reported when available

θmax chosen to adjust rheobase to simulate different OXT conditions as reported in Oettl et al. (2016)
