Abstract:
This study presents data illustrating neurophysiological features of the efferent-afferent convergence on the cortex neurons. It was established that, during the process of combining stimulation of the pyramidal tract (PT) axons with electrical skin reinforcement, a significant amount of neurons under study changed parameters of the activity evoked by the PT-stimulation. The most clear reconstruction of the PT-responses was obtained in experiments with inclusion of neurons into biotechnical complex by means of the feed back: "neuron-computer-stimulating devices-animal", representing an analogue of the functional system. The role of afferent-efferent convergence of the CNS neurons is discussed in dynamic deployment of the action result acceptor in the functional system of natural behavioural act.
