Experimental control of eye and head positions prior to head-unrestrained gaze shifts in monkey.

Abstract:

:A coordinated movement of the eyes and head in the head-unrestrained condition is often used to change orientation between targets. Under natural conditions, these gaze shifts are typically generated with the eyes roughly centered in the orbits. To achieve experimental control of eye and head positions, a miniature laser was mounted on the head implants of monkeys that were trained to point the head to one target and direct gaze to another before generating a head-unrestrained gaze shift to a third target (dissociation paradigm). For comparison, monkeys were also required to make gaze shifts between stimuli, without any constraints on eye and head positions (standard paradigm). Analyses indicated that movement parameters, limited to horizontal gaze shifts, were similar for both behavioral conditions. Thus, the proposed technique and behavioral paradigm, when used in conjunction with electrophysiological and pharmacological experiments, may facilitate the study of neural control of gaze.

  • Knowing the future: partial foreknowledge effects on the programming of prosaccades and antisaccades.

    abstract::Foreknowledge about the demands of an upcoming trial may be exploited to optimize behavioural responses.
