Document Summary
Lecture 10- time and number (part 2), navigation (part 1) Animals" ability to respond at a particular time. Timing that enables animals to respond after a specific interval has elapsed since the occurrence of some event. In other words; it refers to the ability of animals to respond on the basis of specific durations. Not controlled by external factors; rather it is controlled by internal factors aka the internal clock. Can be timing any interval until the tone stops. No entrainment (don"t latch on to one specific stimulus) Responding during a test stimulus that has a diff duration/ interval than the training stimulus. The strength of responding in this case is determined by the difference between responding between the two stimuli. (how well they learn the situation) Each oscillator can have a diff period but only the phase needs to be measured. One period of an oscillator: beginning of the position to the end.
