Abstract

An electroencephalographic study of foci produced in rabbits by the alumina cream method of Kopeloff et al. (1942) shows that there are extrinsic conditions which exert an influence on the amount of the pathological focal activity. This influence is revealed by the fact that alerting stimuli suppress focal activity, while pathological activity increases when the concentration of attention on the environment diminishes. It can be assumed that there is correlation between the amount of the pathological focal activity and the degree of alertness of the test animal.
