Within 15 cm on either side of the blink locations, mean (± SEM) percentage of place fields expressed by CA1 cells that have at least one other place field in a different location
| Young | Old | Stable | Remapping | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Position 1 | ||||
| Days 1–10 | 64.4 ± 5.29 | 59.71 ± 3.99 | 61.26 ± 6.9 | 63.11 ± 2.92 |
| Days 11–20 | 76.03 ± 5.38 | 44.44 ± 7.28 | 75.47 ± 7.18 | 50.18 ± 7.91 |
| Days 21–30 | 69.33 ± 4.73 | 54.84 ± 3.0 | 72.54 ± 4.42 | 54.59 ± 2.27 |

| Days 1–10 | 57.24 ± 5.56 | 38.82 ± 5.75 | 54.0 ± 7.62 | 44.58 ± 6.09 |
| Days 11–20 | 65.86 ± 9.41 | 41.56 ± 7.25 | 54.67 ± 12.96 | 54.94 ± 8.08 |

Data are shown across age groups and across map stability categories. All young rats, n = 6 and all old rats, n = 6; stable rats that did not spontaneously remap, n = 5; and remapping rats that did remap on at least 1 day during spatial eyeblink condition, n = 6. For Position 1, both old rats and remapping rats had significantly fewer place fields per cell than did young and stable rats.
