Properties of saccadic responses in monkey when multiple competing visual stimuli are present.
Important insights into the neural organization of the saccadic system have been gained when the usually stereotyped movement trajectories of saccades have been altered by experimental manipulation. In the present study we produced trajectory variability in monkeys by using a visual search task in which both the location and color of an odd-colored target were changed randomly trial by trial, a...
متن کاملSuperior colliculus activity related to concurrent processing of saccade goals in a visual search task.
Saccades are typically separated by inter-saccadic fixation intervals (ISFIs) of > or =125 ms. During this time, the saccadic system selects a goal and completes the preparatory processes required prior to executing the subsequent movement. However, in tasks in which competing stimuli are presented, two sequentially executed movements to different goals can be separated by much shorter ISFIs. T...
متن کاملShort-term priming, concurrent processing, and saccade curvature during a target selection task in the monkey
In human subjects, two mechanisms for improving the efficiency of saccades in visual search have recently been described: color priming and concurrent processing of two saccades. Since the monkey provides an important model for understanding the neural underpinnings of target selection in visual search, we sought to explore the degree to which the saccadic system of monkeys uses these same mech...
متن کاملBehavioral enhancement of visual responses of prestriate neurons of the rhesus monkey.
Neurons in the superior colliculus, striate cortex, frontal eye fields, and posterior parietal cortex of the monkey respond to visual stimuli. Many of these cells discharge more intensely to a stimulus when it is to be the target for a saccadic eye movement than when fixation is maintained. We have demonstrated that such enhancement of the visual response is also present for cells in prestriate...
متن کاملEvidence against direct connections to PPRF EBNs from SC in the monkey.
Direct projections from the superior colliculus (SC) to the paramedian pontine reticular formation (PPRF) have been demonstrated anatomically. The PPRF contains cells called excitatory burst neurons (EBNs) that execute the final premotoneuronal processing for saccadic eye movements, as well as other burst cells called long-lead burst neurons (LLBNs). Previous electrophysiological tests in monke...
