چکیده
An experiment was designed to determine whether or not the human organism possessed "outflow" information derived from monitoring nerve impulses in motor pathways. The experiment focused on the extraocular muscles since proprioceptive input to the central nervous system from these muscles is poor. The results show that in the absence of good proprioceptive information, the presence or absence of "outflow" information makes a difference in accuracy of localizing an object in space.

Differential Effects of Motor Efference Copies and Proprioceptive Information on Response Evaluation Processes
It is well-kown that sensory information influences the way we execute motor responses. However, less is known about if and how sensory and motor information are integrated in the subsequent process of response evaluation. We used a modified Simon Task to investigate how these streams of information are integrated in response evaluation processes, applying an in-depth neurophysiological analysi...
متن کاملSaccade kinematics modulate perisaccadic perception.
Around the time of execution of an eye movement, participants systematically misperceive the spatial location of briefly flashed visual stimuli. This phenomenon, known as perisaccadic mislocalization, is thought to involve an active process that takes into account the motor plan (efference copy) of the upcoming saccade. While it has been proposed that the motor system anticipates and informs th...

متن کاملDeveloping a BIM-based Spatial Ontology for Semantic Querying of 3D Property Information
With the growing dominance of complex and multi-level urban structures, current cadastral systems, which are often developed based on 2D representations, are not capable of providing unambiguous spatial information about urban properties. Therefore, the concept of 3D cadastre is proposed to support 3D digital representation of land and properties and facilitate the communication of legal owners...
متن کاملEnvironmental reference systems for large-scale spaces
Human navigation in well-known environments is guided by stored memory representations of spatial information. In three experiments (N = 43) we investigated the role of different spatial reference systems when accessing information about familiar objects at different locations in the city in which the participants lived. Our results indicate that two independent reference systems underly the re...
