Extended Data Fig. 6: Relationship between theta bouts and phase precession.
From: Theta phase precession supports memory formation and retrieval of naturalistic experience in humans
(a-b) Example neuron. Shown are the spike phases of spikes following boundaries plotted separately for trials (balanced trial numbers) with (a) or without theta bouts detected (b). Phase precession was observed in either case Significance was accessed using the permutation test. (c-e) Among all the phase precession neurons, their phase precession strength (that is, correlation coefficient) computed separately for trials with and without theta bouts detected during encoding (c), scene recognition (d), and time discrimination (e). **p = 5 × 10−3, *p = 0.032, n.s. = not significant, two-tailed paired t-test.
