In this study:
assess to what extent phase patterns selectivity correlates with neural
firing selectivity to incoming auditory stimuli in monkeys and
humans
Results........... selectivities correlate!

Do phase and amplitude of OS convey similar amount information about the selectivity of firing?
no. OS power convey less or unsignificant infos
What is interesting?

but

So we can:
Use information theory to relate different decoding matrices and accuracies
Use information theory to directly measure the amount of information conveyed by different responses
Carry out similar analysis, changing dataset, stimulation protocol, stimulation medium
...investigate origin and mechanisms
