The quantification of spiking variability is prevalent to many questions in neuroscience. In this review, several measures of variability are presented, as well as algorithms for implementing analyses including: spike rates and Fano factor, inter-spike intervals, coefficient of variation and local variation, autocorrelation, period histograms, a synchrony index (vector strength), and finally post-stimulus time histograms. Some of the techniques show significant overlap; however, each measure is qualitatively unique and can be tuned to the researchers needs.
