Abstrakt: The EPs of the inferior colliculus and auditory cortex in anaesthetized guinea pigs and the long latency auditory EPs in alert humans were studied. The stimuli consisted of binaurally presented pairs of clicks used as a masker, and the probe, with a variable time delay between them. The greatest relative differences between out-of-phase and in-phase probe responses were observed at the beginning of the recovery course. They averaged as 1.6, 1.5 and 1.4 for the responses of the inferior colliculus, auditory cortex and long latency potentials, resp., at the stimuli intensities of 50-65 dB SPL, and then decreased to zero during the time course of the probe response recovery. Correlation of this parameter with the stimulus intensity was positive.
