Modifications of the Activity of the Vestibular Nuclei in the Cat, Following Stimulation of the Temporal Lobe

Experimental investigations in the cat have demonstrated the following modifications of the activity of the vestibular nuclei: (a) galvanic stimulation of the receptors causes either increase or reduction or no change of activity in deitersian units; (b) stimulation of the temporal area causes changes of frequency and rhythm in ipsilateral and sometimes in contralateral deitersian units.
