Time and intensity cues are processed independently in the auditory system of the owl
Open accessAbstract
Space-specific neurons, found in the barn owl's inferior colliculus, respond selectively to a narrow range of interaural time and intensity differences. We show that injecting a local anesthetic into one cochlear nucleus, nucleus magnocellularis, alters the space-specific cell's selectivity for interaural time difference, leaving its selectivity for interaural intensity difference intact. Anesthetizing the other cochlear nucleus, nucleus angularis, has the converse effects. We show also that the space-specific neuron's selectivity for one interaural cue is the same for all effective values of the other cue. We conclude that time and intensity cues are processed in separate neural channels of the barn owl's auditory system and that the two cues operate independently.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
