Flickering depends on theta power and animal position after the switch in environment. (a) The number of flickering events ( $n_{\text{Flicker}}$) increases with theta amplitude and decreases with distance from switch position ‐ model. Each square shows the number of flickering events during 5s after the switch (color coded), from a simulation with different theta amplitude ( $\frac{A_{\theta }}{\left|I_0\right|}$) and virtual animal speed (constant during the simulation), which results in a different average distance from the switch position during 5 s following the switch. (b) Data: Each dot represents the number of flickering event per seconds in a time window of 5s after the switch of sensory cues (color coded,) from a single trial, characterized by (i) The average distance of the animal position in the time window (ii) Normalized theta power around the switch. Partial correlation coefficient between theta power and $n_{Flic\ker }$ was 0.44 with p value < 0.001. Partial correlation coefficient between V and n Flickers was −0.15 with p value<0.05 (see methods) [Color figure can be viewed at wileyonlinelibrary.com]
