Abstract
A review of literature indicates that the perception and memory of movement patterns with kinaesthesis might be expected to differ depending on whether a movement pattern is actively commanded or passively induced. In addition, it has been suggested that kinaesthesis is a gross sense in the absence of vision. An attempt was made to demonstrate differences between the perception and memory of actively commanded movement patterns, passively induced movement patterns, and visual patterns formed by a moving light. A visual recognition test was employed. While it was apparent that the recognition task was a sensitive one for testing the accuracy of pattern perception, no significant difference was demonstrated between the three movement conditions.
