ELECTROGRAPHIC DATA ON THE OPERATION OF 'BIOLOGICAL CLOCKS' OF THE HUMAN BRAIN.

Abstract

Some electrographic indices (EEG, GSR and OR) that are manifested as a time reflex in trace conditioning were investigated using a polygraph recording procedure. The experimental schedule was as follows: a sound stimulus (the conditioning stimulus) was coupled with a light stimulus (the reinforcement). The interval between these stimuli was 60 seconds. The dynamics of electrographic reactions in the process of forming the link between the coupled stimuli is described. The possible mechanisms involved in marking-off time by the human brain are discussed. (Author)
