Specific consequences of intrinsic plasticity: IP
IP directly affects the output function of neurons (AP or not) since it often operates at or near the soma IP alters the firing probability of the neuron (changes in the neuron’function within its network) IP has similar effect (positive or negative) on all synaptic inputs (whatever their origin, no synaptic specificity) affecting their ability of fire or not an AP IP, contrary to synaptic plasticity (LTP…), does not require prolonged or strong stimulation, thus it can provide a cellular correlate for single-experience learning (single AP can be sufficient…)

How to define “excitability”? (required to be quantified!)
« Excitability is an abstraction. The measurable reality is the exciting stimulus: the action that causes the reaction to the object ... excitability is a reciprocal value of the exciting action. »
Louis Lapicque (1926) (first intracellular record in 1939)
Capacity (relative) of an excitable element to generate an action potential in response to a given excitatory stimulus. It depends on the "passive" electrical properties and the active membrane conductance that participate to the firing of the neuron.
