Table 1.

Speech training altered receptive field properties. Speech training lowered thresholds, widened bandwidths, and increased response latency in all four fields compared to control rats.

		Threshold (dB)	Bandwidth 40 (octaves)	Peak latency (ms)	Driven rate (spikes/tone)
AAF	Control	15.4	3.1	17.2	1.5
AAF	Trained	10.0^*	3.6^*	19.3^*	1.5
A1	Control	11.0	2.7	18.5	1.6
A1	Trained	7.2^*	3.4^*	20.0^*	2.0^*
VAF	Control	16.9	2.8	22.7	2.0
VAF	Trained	10.6^*	3.7^*	27.9	1.8
PAF	Control	19.8	3.5	28.5	1.6
PAF	Trained	10.2^*	4.6^*	39.1^*	2.0

Bold numbers marked with a star were significantly different in speech trained rats compared to control rats (p < 0.01).
