[Striate cortex neuron activity in behavior following a change in the visual background].

Neuronal activity in the visual cortex was studied in rabbits during instrumental feeding behaviour in a changing visual environment. Controlled environmental changes were created by changing the orientation of white-black stripes in the rabbit's visual field. A connection was found between the neuronal activity and the stages of goal-oriented behaviour, as well as a reorganization of both neuronal activity and details of acts directed toward intermediate and final achievements of feeding behaviour in the changing visual environment.
