Further properties of the human saccadic system: eye movements and correction saccades with and without visual fixation points.

چکیده
The execution of normal saccadic eye movements was found to depend upon clearlyvisible fixation points. Eye movements made in the dark or in an otherwise homogeneous fieldexhibited 10% longer durations and 16% slower maximum velocities than those between wellilluminated targets. An increase in duration is already noticeable when the fixation points disappear350 msec before the saccade. A second saccade often occurs despite the absence of fixation points.This phenomenon led to experiments which suggest that for large angles, the eye movement responseis preprogrammed as two movements and that the second saccade in the package is determinedby a position error sample of 70 msec. Resume-L‘extcution normale de mouvements rapides des yeux (saccades) depend de I‘existence.dans le champs visuel, de points de fixation. Dans le noir ou dans un champs visuel autrementhomogene les saccades montrent une augmentation de durte de 10% et une reduction en vitessemaximale de 16% par rapport aux valeurs normales. Une augmentation de duree se fait dejaremarquer si les points de fixation disparaissent 350 ms avant le debut de la saccade. Meme enI’absence de points de fixation les mouvements se terminent souvant par une saccade secondaire.Ceci a ment a des experiences qui, par leurs rtsultats, suggerent que les larges mouvementsocutaires sont preprogrammes comme volie de deux saccades dont la 2i*mc est &term;&e;,quant a son amplitude, par une mesure d’erreur d’une duree de 70 ms. Zusammenfassung-Voraussetzung tiir die Ausfuhrung normaler sakkadischer Augenbewegungensind gut sichtbare Fixationspunkte.

EinZuwachs der Dauer ist bereits bemerkbar, wenn die Fixationspunkte 350 ms vor Sakkadenbeginnverschwinden.

P58: Visual Working Memory Performance Based on Saccades in Children with and without Specific Learning Disorder: An Eye-Tracking Study
Some of the previous studies show that children with SLD have deficits in visual processing and working memory. Hence, the aim of this research was to investigate problems of visual working memory based on behavioral neuroscience method, using an eye tracker device. The method of present study was ex-post facto study. The participants included couple of twelve children with SLD (mean age=10.92)...
متن کاملBlink-perturbed saccades in monkey. I. Behavioral analysis.
Saccadic eye movements are thought to be influenced by blinking through premotor interactions, but it is still unclear how. The present paper describes the properties of blink-associated eye movements and quantifies the effect of reflex blinks on the latencies, metrics, and kinematics of saccades in the monkey. In particular, it is examined to what extent the saccadic system accounts for blink-...
متن کاملAn oculomotor continuum from exploration to fixation.
During visual exploration, saccadic eye movements scan the scene for objects of interest. During attempted fixation, the eyes are relatively still but often produce microsaccades. Saccadic rates during exploration are higher than those of microsaccades during fixation, reinforcing the classic view that exploration and fixation are two distinct oculomotor behaviors. An alternative model is that ...
متن کاملVisual memory during pauses between successive saccades.
Selective attention is closely linked to eye movements. Prior to a saccade, attention shifts to the saccadic goal at the expense of surrounding locations. Such a constricted attentional field, while useful to ensure accurate saccades, constrains the spatial range of high-quality perceptual analysis. The present study showed that attention could be allocated to locations other than the saccadic ...
متن کاملEnduring dysmetria and impaired gain adaptivity of saccadic eye movements in Wallenberg's lateral medullary syndrome.
Saccadic eye movements and the adaptive control of their amplitudes were examined in patients with Wallenberg's lateral medullary syndrome. Half of the patients had permanent saccadic dysmetria. Their primary saccades had asymmetric amplitudes: those made in response to an ipsilateral target step (i.e. to the lesion side) tended to be hypermetric and saccades made in response to a contralateral...
