The unique features of this report consisted of t he fact that human and cat data during several cognitive paradigms were com pared. The results open the way to formulate the selectively distributed th eta system in the: brain as analyzed by Basar, Schurmann and Sakowitz (this issue). (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.
