In another paper two types of cortical activity elicited by stimulation of the sensory path have been described. Evidence was presented that these phenomena, the so-called augmented and repetitive sensory responses, share a single neuronal mechanism, but may, on the other hand, be segregated both from the simple "primary" sensory response and the generalized 8 to 12 per second "spontaneous" bursts (Dempsey and Morison, 1943). The present study was directed toward a more thorough investigation of the properties of the system responsible for the augmented and repeating effects. METHODS. The methods employed were entirely similar to those employed in the preceding papers and need not be repeated. RESULTS.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
