    Figure 1.

    Stimulus-specific adaptation in the mouse MGB. A, Population PSTHs averaged over all MGB recordings, showing responses to switching oddball stimuli with interstimulus intervals of 400 (left), 500 (middle), or 800 ms (right). Each plot compares the average neuronal response to tones presented as standards (blue) with the average response to the same tones presented as deviants (red); the average difference in response is also shown (green). B, Histograms of neuronal stimulus-specific adaptation indices (neuronal SIs) for tone responses recorded using switching-oddball stimuli with interstimulus intervals of 400 (left), 500 (middle), or 800 ms (right). Recordings with individually significant neuronal SIs (p < 0.01) are indicated with black bars. Numbers and text within each plot indicate the following: (bottom left and right) the number of recordings with neuronal SIs above and below zero; (top left) the result of a sign-rank test of the hypothesis that the median neuronal SI was zero; and (top right) the percentage of recordings for which the neuronal SI was individually significant by a randomization test (p < 0.01). C, Population PSTHs showing responses averaged over only those MGB recordings for which the neuronal SIs were significant (p < 0.01) and with an expanded timescale around response onset. Conventions as in A but note different x-scale and y-scale.

    Figure 2.

    Stimulus-specific adaptation occurs primarily in the medial subdivision of the mouse MGB. Plotting conventions as in Figure 1B. Histograms show neuronal SIs for recordings in the medial (A), ventral (B), and dorsal (C) MGB, for each of the three different interstimulus intervals.
