Classical conditioning is known to induce frequency-specific receptive field (RF) plasticity in the auditory cortex (ACx). This study determined the effects of discrimination training on RFs at two levels of task difficulty. Single unit and cluster discharges were recorded in the ACx of adult guinea pigs trained in a tone-shock frequency discrimination paradigm (30 intermixed trials each of positive conditioned stimulus [CS+]-shock and negative CS [CS-] alone) with behavioral performance indexed by the cardiac deceleration conditioned response (CR).
