Abstract

The two indices that have been proposed for quantifying the accuracy of smooth-following eye movements are shown to be interchangeable. This algebraic fact will permit comparability of values between laboratories only if workers who employ the signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) as their index measure S and N as the total signal and noise power, respectively, in the eye movement record.

Neural adaptation of imaginary visual motion.

Observers made time-to-contact judgements about an imagined moving object that passed through an area of the visual field previously adapted to a single direction of real motion. The direction of imagined motion varied relative to the direction of adapting motion. When imagined motion was in the same direction as that experienced during adaptation, imagined speed was slowed; when imagined motion was in the opposite direction, its speed was increased; when adaptation and imagined motions were orthogonal, imagined speed was unaffected. The particular influence that prior adaptation has on imagined speed suggests that imagined motion and real vision may engage common neural mechanisms without being functionally equivalent. Negative aftereffects observed in imagined motion imply that the imagination represents movement as an inference from position changes of static images.

On the role of extraretinal signals for saccade generation.

We investigated the accuracy of sequential saccadic eye movements, executed without visual feed-back. We found evidence that the final error of one saccade is corrected during the next, which supports the existence of extraretinal inputs to the saccadic generator. The corrections, however, were incomplete, which suggests that extraretinal signals are only partially effective.
