Abstract

Responses from the inferior colliculus in the rat to tone bursts and bursts of broad-band noise were compared with cross-correlograms of the responses to continuous tones and noise that were amplitude modulated with pseudorandom noise. The waveform of the cross-correlograms showed great similarities with that of the evoked response, but the latency of the former showed less dependence on stimulus intensity than did the latency of the latter.
