Main gradient directions (relative to anterior-posterior axis) and the resulting relative angle (α) between the orientations of the amplitude modulation rate (Rate) and spectral frequency (Frequency) gradients in auditory fields A1, R and CL are listed for two hemispheres (L, R) in three animals (M1-3). Additionally, R2 values, p-values and number of data points (n) from the respective 2D regression analysis are included.
Directions and relative orientations of amplitude modulation rate and frequency gradients in selected auditory field (based on best rate/frequency maps). Main gradient directions (relative to anterior-posterior axis) and the resulting relative angle (α) between the orientations of the amplitude modulation rate (Rate) and spectral frequency (Frequency) gradients in auditory fields A1, R and CL are listed for two hemispheres (L, R) in three animals (M1-3). Additionally, R2 values, p-values and number of data points (n) from the respective 2D regression analysis are included. * No defined gradient direction due to single best frequency in field.
