Saccadic eye movements are coordinated with head movements in walking chickens.
1. Saccadic eye movements during walking were studied in chickens using cinematography. 2. Saccades were made during about 80% of the thrust phases of head bobbing, and not made in the hold phases. 3. The coordination of saccades with head movements maintains clear vision for the largest possible proportion of the time. 4. The absence of saccades in hold phases and in some thrusts is probably n...
متن کاملSaccadic eye movements and cognition.
Scanning of the visual scene is an important selective process in visual perception. In this article we argue that eye-movement data provide an excellent on-line indication of the cognitive processes underlying visual search and reading. We outline some recent advances from physiological investigations of saccadic eye-movement control before focusing on eye-movement behaviour in visual search a...
متن کاملSaccadic Eye Movements in Depressed Elderly Patients
The primary aim of this study was to characterize oculomotor performances in elderly depressed patients. The second aim was to investigate whether cognitive inhibition measured by the antisaccade task was associated with a psychomotor retardation or rather with a more specific cognitive-motor inhibition deficit. Twenty patients with a major depressive disorder and forty-seven healthy subjects p...
متن کاملSlow saccadic eye movements in Wilson's disease.
This is the first reported case of Wilson's disease where a global defect of saccadic eye movements has been documented by electro-oculography. The defect of rapid eye movements is discussed in relation to current anatomical, pathological, and experimental work relating to the descending frontobulbar saccadic eye movement system. It is suggested that the caudate nucleus pathology in Wilson's di...
