Abstract
Experiments on human subjects exposed to angular oscillation whilst viewing a head-fixed display have indicated that the degree of suppression of the vestibulo-ocular reflex is dependent upon the peripheral location of the visual target. Suppression is greatest when fixating a central target and decreases in a graded manner for targets placed more peripherally. During central fixation a low-velocity nystagmus is still evident and there is no indication of any complete cancellation of the vestibulo-ocular reflex.This publication has 40 references indexed in Scilit:
