ODE parameters for SCR | Gaussian parameters for SN | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Parametera | Aversive | Oddball | Parameterb | Aversive | Oddball |
ϑ1 | 1.3277 | 1.5457 | µ | 1.6850 | 1.6785 |
ϑ2 | 1.1205 | 1.9595 | σ | 0.3051 | 0.2471 |
ϑ3 | 0.1084 | 0.1336 | A | 0.7814 | 0.6589 |
ϑ4 | −0.4265 | 0.3001 | c | 0.1567 | 0.0000 |
ϑ1–ϑ3 determine the shape of the SCRF. ϑ4 determines the delay with respect to an eliciting SN burst and depends on the precise distance of the intraneural recording electrode from the skin; hence, it has no generalizable interpretation.
σ describes the shape (dispersion) and µ the delay of an SN burst with respect to an eliciting external stimulus. Delay depends on recording location along the nerve. A is the amplitude, which depends on recording settings, and c is the baseline SN activity.
