Correlation-regression analysis of parameters of auditory potentials

Neurophysiology Aims and scope

Abstract

Characteristics (amplitude, latent period) of two types of evoked potentials arising in response to acoustic stimulation, namely the action potential of the auditory nerve and sonomotor evoked potential derived from skin of the postauricular region and back, were studied in guinea pigs. Correlation-regression analysis revealed the degree and type of association between the parameters of these potentials. For action potentials and sonomotor potentials (irrespective of from where the latter were recorded) close correlation was found (r = 0.93). Similar close correlation (r = 0.91) also was found when latent periods of the action potential and sonomotor evoked potentials recorded from skin of the postauricular region, but not from skin of the back, were compared. As a result of mathematical modeling data were obtained for pathogenetically based correction of disturbed functions of the auditory system.
