Convergence of different sensory streams on individual Purkinje cells

Whisker pad 1.21 1.25 0.85 1.34 2.75**
Upper lip 1.23 2.00* 1.34 1.94

For each type of stimulus, we compared the observed rate of convergence on individual Purkinje cells to chance level, using a bootstrap method based on the relative prevalence of responses to each stimulus (cf. Fig. 5). The difference from chance is indicated by Z values. All combinations occurred more often than expected (Z > 0). The P values of these correlations underwent Benjamini–Hochberg correction for multiple comparisons. * P < 0.05; ** P < 0.01.
