FIG. 2.
Different temporal response patterns during restraint 1 as identified by K-means cluster analysis on the normalized FR histograms of 115 neurons. Average normalized rate histograms (z-scores) are shown for each group. Dashed lines indicate a significant deviation from baseline (P< 0.05). Four response patterns were identified. (a) The sustained responders had a slow onset increase in FR that remained elevated after the termination of restraint. (b) The restraint-locked responders increased their FR during the restraint procedure. (c) Change-of-condition responders had a brief increase in FR immediately after the restraint began, and a second increase in FR after the restraint was terminated. (d) Non-responders had no significant response to restraint.
