Shared attention for smooth pursuit and saccades.
Identification of brief luminance decrements on parafoveal stimuli presented during smooth pursuit improves when a spot pursuit target is surrounded by a larger random dot cinematogram (RDC) that moves with it (Heinen, Jin, & Watamaniuk, 2011). This was hypothesized to occur because the RDC provided an alternative, less attention-demanding pursuit drive, and therefore released attentional resou...
متن کاملCoordination of smooth pursuit and saccades
Smooth pursuit and saccades are two components of tracking eye movements. Their coordination has usually been studied by investigating latencies of pursuit onset in response to a moving target appearing simultaneously with the disappearance of the stationary fixation target. The general finding from such studies has been that latencies of saccades and pursuit are different and reflect independe...
متن کاملCommon inhibitory mechanism for saccades and smooth-pursuit eye movements.
The premotor pathways subserving saccades and smooth-pursuit eye movements are usually thought to be different. Indeed, saccade and smooth-pursuit eye movements have different dynamics and functions. In particular, a group of midline cells in the pons called omnipause neurons (OPNs) are considered to be part of the saccadic system only. It has been established that OPNs keep premotor neurons fo...
متن کاملAccuracy of eye position for saccades and smooth pursuit
In this study, we address the question of whether a target is foveated during smooth pursuit. Specifically, we examine whether smooth pursuit eye movements land near the center-of-mass of the target, as is the case for saccades. To that end, we instructed eight untrained, healthy participants to follow moving targets, presented monocularly in a scanning laser ophthalmoscope. Stimuli moved eithe...
متن کاملAnticipatory saccades in smooth pursuit: Task effects and pursuit vector after saccades
The dramatic improvement in smooth pursuit performance seen while analyzing the pursuit target has been ascribed to attention enhancement. With a periodic constant velocity target trajectory we ran a concurrent listening condition instead, to see if this mild distraction would degrade performance. Performance improved somewhat with the listening task, suggesting that displacing attentional effo...
