Conclusions
-
1.
When the dominant passes into its formation stage of summation reflex, electrocutaneous stimulation of the limb induces, together with subsequent summation, temporary inhibition of the formation of a dominant focus.
-
2.
The dominant focus, created in the blink center, does not produce conjugate inhibition effects on the local motor defensive reflex.
-
3.
The presence of circulatory interactions between the centers during the formation of a simple form of temporary connection apparently ensures the fixation of the connection established between the centers.
