Psychometric Curve and Behavioral Strategies for Whisker-Based Texture Discrimination in Rats
The rodent whisker system is a major model for understanding neural mechanisms for tactile sensation of surface texture (roughness). Rats discriminate surface texture using the whiskers, and several theories exist for how texture information is physically sensed by the long, moveable macrovibrissae...
