Abstract
At present there are serious grounds to believe that the motion aftereffect is characteristic of all sensory systems involved in spatial orientation, and that motion adaptation in one sensory system causes changes in the other one, and that such adjustment is of critical adaptive significance. In this part of the review we report briefly outlined developments and the current state of studies of this issue in visual modality. The visual motion aftereffect has been studied more comprehensively as compared with other modalities. The main concepts about the mechanisms of this phenomenon and application of motion adaptation to studies of visual motion analysis at its different levels are actively used in current scientific literature to understand the mechanisms of this phenomenon in other sensory systems. A leading role of vision in spatial orientation is manifested in the intersensory interaction where visual motion adaptation brings about significant changes in perception in other modalities.
