Abstract
Current study attempted to determine whether repeated smooth pursuit trials using theta motion, in which the directions of retinal image-motion and object-motion are opposed, yield pursuit adaptation. Adaptation trials consisted of 350 step-ramp trials using theta motion, and pre- and post-trials using first-order motion were conducted. As a result, initial acceleration in post-adaptation increased significantly than pre-adaptation trials. This was the case even though there was no adaptive change throughout adaptation (350 trials) using theta motion. Our results suggest that smooth pursuit could adapt to theta motion even with challenges associated with opposite retinal slip.
