  • Percentages in terms of task-modulated units sampled. p+t+, phasic-tonic increase in activity; t+, tonic increase in activity; p+, phasic increase in activity; decr, decrementing activity; (p+)ramp, ramp activity with or without preceding phasic burst; MN, motoneurons; PreM-IN, premotor interneurons; Sy-IN and U-IN, synchrony and unidentified interneurons.

  • * Two Sy-INs (1 in alternating task, 1 in center-out task) and 3 PreM-INs had activity that was not modulated with the task; these cells are described in the companion paper (Perlmutter et al. 1998) and are not discussed further in this paper. For other nonclassified cells, insufficient data were recorded on tape to classify response patterns.
