Abstract

Neural networks applied to the oculomotor system (D.A. Robinson). Eye movements in neurological diagnosis: Huntington's disease and congenital nystagmus (D.S. Zee). Neurophysiology of Eye Movements. Localization of targets in humans: the role of ocular muscle proprioception (D. Nommay et al). Effects of severance of the vestibular commissural pathway on the neural integrator of the oculomotor system in cat (E. Godaux, G. Cheron). Representation of three-dimensional eye movements in the cerebellar flocculus of the rabbit (J. van der Steen et al). Effects of floccular injections of noradrenergic agonists and antagonists on adaptive changes in the VOR gain (J. van Neerven et al). The Control of Eye Movements. Human vestibuloocular reflex (VOR) and vestibular velocity storage as influenced by optokinetic stimuli (E. Koenig et al). Vertical gaze stability in cat: otolithic contribution (V.E. Pettorossi et al). Post-rotational nystagmus suppression by the presentation of a single visual target in cat and man (G. Magenes et al). Adaptive mechanisms in the monkey saccadic system (P. Inchingolo et al). Human express saccades: catch trails influence the probability of their occurrence (M. Juttner, W. Wolf). Eye-Head Coordination. Adaptation of eye and head movements to reduced peripheral vision (G.M. Gauthier et al). Coupled and dissociated modes of eye-head coordination in humans to flashed visual target (S. Ron, A. Berthoz). Superior colliculus and feedback control of gaze shift in the head-free cat (D. Pelisson et al). Strategies of eye-head coordination (R. Schmid, D. Zambarbieri). Eye Movements in Pathology. Sensory and motor aspects of congenital nystagmus (R.V. Abadi et al). Head-shaking nystagmus - A clinical tool to detect peripheral and central vestibular asymmetries (M. Fetter et al). Saccadic and smooth pursuit eye movements in olivo-ponto-cerebellar atrophies (M. Spanio et al). Slow eye movement abnormalities in Wallenberg's lateral medullary syndrome (W. Waespe). Eye tracking dysfunctions in schizophrenic patients - Why is there no neuroleptic side-effect? (N. Hock et al). Eye Movements and Cognitive Processes. A mathematical analysis of the convenient viewing position hypothesis and its components (M. Brysbaert, G. d'Ydewalle). Is there an optimal landing position in words during reading of texts? (F. Vitu, J.K. O'Regan). Processing of prepositions as reflected by gaze durations (A. Wilbertz et al). The latency of saccadic eye movements to texture-defined stimuli (H. Deubel, H. Frank). Does thinking aloud influence the structure of cognitive processes? (U. Lass et al). Eye movements in visual search: a test of the limited cognitive effort hypothesis and an analysis of the search operating characteristic (A.M. Jacobs). Applied Research.
