Fig. 5.

Mean significant correlation coefficient values (averaged over each discrete distance) between the responses of two MI neurons as a function of the distance between the electrodes on which the neurons were recorded. No significant relationship between the strength of the correlation and the interelectrode spacing was observed. Error bars indicate SDs. Note that, unlike Figure 4, mean correlation coefficient values are based on only those that were significantly different from zero. When all correlation coefficient values are considered, the relationship between the mean correlation and electrode distance remains flat and nonsignificant.
