Table 5.

Number and percentage of neurons with correlation between firing rate and reaction time.

Segments of RT task Brain area recorded
mPFC DMS GP SNr
Before lever press 12/15 (29) 9/12 (29) 18/14 (36) 11/13 (42)
During holding 13/7 (22) 6/7 (18) 7/10 (19) 12/7 (33)
Before lever release 18/9 (29) 7/4 (15) 9/7 (18) 13/4 (30)
Total neurons 92 72 89 57

Numbers before and after the slash indicated the neurons for which the firing rates positively or negatively correlated with reaction times, respectively. Numbers in parentheses showed the percentage of all correlated neurons in total recorded neurons of the respective area.
