Abstract

The time courses of horizontal saccades, and quick phases of vestibular nystagmus, were compared in alert chronic cats. Despite considerable variability it appears that saccades and quick phases have identical temporal characteristics. It is shown that there is no linear addition between the oppositely directed slow and quick phase movements during vestibular nystagmus in either the light or dark. The results suggest that during a quick phase there is a pause in the signal responsible for generating the slow phase of vestibular nystagmus.
