Performance Deficits in a Voluntary Saccade Task in Chinese “Express Saccade Makers”
Differences in behaviour and cognition have been observed in different human populations. It has been reported that in various types of complex visual task, eye movement patterns differ systematically between Chinese and non-Chinese participants, an observation that has been related to differences in culture between groups. However, we confirm here that, in healthy, naïve adult Chinese particip...
متن کاملTemporal Stability and the Effects of Training on Saccade Latency in “Express Saccade Makers”
The temporal stability of saccade latency, and the effects of training, particularly in "express saccade makers" (ESMs), has received little attention. ESMs are healthy, naïve, adults, who persist in executing very many low latency "express saccades" (ES; saccades with latency of 80 ms to 130 ms), in conditions designed to suppress such responses. We investigated the stability of ES production ...
متن کاملOptimal performance in a countermanding saccade task.
Countermanding an action is a fundamental form of cognitive control. In a saccade-countermanding task, subjects are instructed that, if a stop signal appears shortly after a target, they are to maintain fixation rather than to make a saccade to the target. In recent years, recordings in the frontal eye fields and superior colliculus of behaving non-human primates have found correlates of such c...
متن کاملSaccadic inhibition in a guided saccade task
The eye movement system reacts very systematically to visual transients that are presented during the planning phase of a saccade. About 50 to 70 ms after the onset of a transient, the number of saccades that are started decreases, a phenomenon that has been termed saccadic inhibition. Saccades started just before this time window are hypometric compared to regular saccades, presumably because ...
متن کاملFlexible saccade-target selection in Chinese reading.
As Chinese is written without orthographical word boundaries (i.e., spaces), it is unclear whether saccade targets are selected on the basis of characters or words and whether saccades are aimed at the beginning or the centre of words. Here, we report an experiment where 30 Chinese readers read 150 sentences while their eye movements were monitored. They exhibited a strong tendency to fixate at...
