The physiological meaning of return atierentation consists in the reflection in minutest afferent impulses of the minutest details of the results of a given action. These results may direct the information to the central nervous system through the most diverse receptor apparatus. However, this af^ercntation as a whole constitutes a peculiar integral which reflects in the stream of afferent impulses the aggregate results of the given reflex action (Anokhin, 1935; Anokhin and Ivanov, 1933). Since it is directed back to the central nervous system to the neural formations just activated we found it most convenient to name it the 'return affcrentation'..
