Abstract

The purpose of the experiment was to examine the assumption that the lambda response would be associated with offset of the saccade. The occipital EEG and eye movements were recorded under the condition in which the subjects looked at the stimulus object freely. EEGs triggered at onset and offset of saccades were averaged separately by a computer. Lambda responses appeared to be more definite and were larger in amplitude in onset averages than in offset averages. The result showed that the lambda response was associated with offset of the saccade, and not with its onset. It is suggested that the lambda response might be a kind of visual evoked potential elicited by the afferent inflow beginning at fixation pause.
