Zusammenfassung
Adrenalinzufuhr wie auch hochfrequente elektrische Reizung am pontinischen Gehirnstamm führen zu Potentialverstärkung, wenn diese nicht visuell, sondern auditiv geweckt wurde. Entsprechende Versuche mit Acetylcholin führten zu keinem Erfolg, was für die Spezifität der retikularen Einflüsse spricht.
