Neuronal unit activity was recorded from auditory nuclei, and dorsal hippocampus, and the cerebellum in rabbits behaviorally detecting a threshold-level constant intensity white noise stimulus. Stimulus-evoked neuronal unit activity was present and identical on both detection and nondetection trials in auditory nuclei but was dichotomous in the hippocampus and in the cerebellum, the latter two systems predicting the occurrence of behavioral detection. It is concluded that the behavioral absolute auditory threshold is not determined by differential activation of neurons in the primary auditory relay nuclei.
在行为学上检测阈限水平恒定强度白噪声刺激的家兔中，记录了听觉核团、背侧海马和小脑的神经元单位活动。在听觉核团中，刺激诱发的神经元单位活动在检测和未检测试验中均存在且相同，但在海马和小脑中则是二分的，后两个系统可预测行为检测的发生。得出的结论是，行为学上的绝对听觉阈限不是由初级听觉中继核团中神经元的差异激活所决定的。
