Talk:Auditory cortex

Untitled
Reference 4 seems to bear no relation to the topic being talked about. The reference is about the rate of depolarisation of cochlear neurons whereas the topic is the organisation of the auditory cortex. Recommend deleting the reference and flagging the article as needing proper referencing... Pinnaboy 19:51, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Could someone please make sure that this image has the areas properly located? I think they're off, but I'm going by memory and don't have a textbook handy. The image was created per request at commons:Commons:Graphic Lab School/Images to improve, so you can ask the person who made it to change it around as needed. Thanks. – Mike . lifeguard  &#124; @en.wb 13:59, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

Relationship to the auditory system
I have deleted the last sentence of this section:

The medial prefrontal cortex is thought to be the core developmental difference between the impulsive teenager and the calm adult.

I did this because it doesn't really make sense, and there is still no citation. If anyone can provide a citation and better wording, it would be appreciated. Otherwise, it will remain here in the Talk page. Eflatmajor7th (talk) 06:53, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

Also, I have deleted the following, from the same section:

The secondary auditory cortex has been indicated in the processing of “harmonic, melodic and rhythmic patterns.” The tertiary auditory cortex supposedly integrates everything into the overall experience of music.

The cited facts are far too general, to the point that they don't mean anything. And even though they are partially quoted from the Nature article cited, that article itself provides no references for these facts, and they are therefore mere conjecture. It is also a problem that there are no articles for Secondary and Tertiary Auditory cortices. If anyone can provide helpful sources and quotations, it would be appreciated, otherwise these things will remain in the Talk page. Eflatmajor7th (talk) 07:22, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

Also, I have deleted the following:

Auditory cortex oscillations roughly within the gamma wave bandwidth have been shown to correlate with hallucination. Sperling showed in his 2004 study that auditory hallucinations correlate with frequencies of cortical oscillation in the range of 12.5–30 Hz. The frequencies occurred in the left auditory cortex of a schizophrenic and were controlled against 13 controls. This aligns with the studies of people remembering a song in their minds; they do not perceive any sound, but experience the melody, rhythm and overall experience of sound. When schizophrenics experience hallucinations, it is the primary auditory cortex which becomes active. This is characteristically different from remembering a sound stimulus, which only faintly activates the tertiary auditory cortex.

There are many problems with this paragraph, and no one has fixed them. There is still no proper citation for the Sperling thing. It is not well-written. And there is nothing in the Abbott reference that mentions any of this. If anyone can improve upon this, great, otherwise it will stay here in the talk page.

Move suggestion
I suggest that this page be moved (renamed) to Auditory cortex. There is no article with that latter lemma. It is the more general structure and can easily contain the information on A1. More often than not, A1 is subsumed under AC in the literature in a toto-pro-pars manner. Also, for species-comparative reasons it can be convenient to speak of AC, not A1. Even now, sections of the article cover AC, not just A1 specifically, and sometimes it is not clear which is meant. Kind regards, 㓟 (talk) 08:59, 27 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, I agree that the current title is unnecessarily narrow. Dicklyon (talk) 14:44, 27 May 2013 (UTC)
 * I support the move/rename. Eflatmajor7th (talk) 21:05, 27 May 2013 (UTC)

Thanks a lot. I think that it should be fine to do the move. For convenience, I will request a technical move from an admin. 㓟 (talk) 19:32, 28 May 2013 (UTC)

Done. 㓟 (talk) 15:01, 29 May 2013 (UTC)
