Abstract
Two groups of units with different discharge patterns were identified in dog's frontal cortex during reinforcement period of reversal condit ioning. Activity of the first group of units was closely related to re inforcement presentation and was influenced reward/unreward history in trials preceding the current one, Units of the second group displayed tonic increase of firing which followed food ingestion and persisted for 4-10 s.
