Fig. 3: Response variability of working memory-active neurons and non-active neurons.
From: Unraveling the roles of spatial working memory sustained and selective neurons in prefrontal cortex
Working memory-active neurons were identified based on the significant increase in firing rates during the first and second delay periods, and their Fano factors were measured. A WM-sustained neurons. B WM-selective neurons. n = 233, n = 191, n = 449 neurons for the first delay WM-sustained, the second delay WM-sustained, and the not sustained neurons, respectively. n = 120, n = 124, n = 507 neurons for the first delay WM-selective, the second delay WM-selective, and the not selective neurons, respectively. * Shows significant effects (p < 0.05), and n.s. stands for not significant based on the two-sided Wilcoxon rank-sum test. Gray dots represent individual data points for each unit. The vertical black lines represent ± SEM.
