Figure 6.

Representative examples of changes in the rate and/or pattern of firing related to transition behaviors. Panels (A) and (B) correspond to the termination of poking and backing away from the nosepoke, whereas panels (C) and (D) correspond to nosepoke approach and initiation of poking. The vertical line at t = 0 indicates offset of the response phase (A,B) or onset of the response phase (C,D). Statistics analyses were performed on the time after poke offset in panels (A,B), and prior to poke onset in panels (C,D). In panels (A,C), a significant difference as a function of Phase was seen. In panels (B,D), significant effects were found for Phase, Time, and the Phase × Time interaction.
