Abstract

This paper reports a serendipitous observation. Prior research led to the expectation that equal numbers of right-movers and left-movers would be found in a study aimed at exploring individual differences in conjugate lateral eye movement. Instead, most subjects were found to be right-movers (p <.001). Scrutiny of the study’s procedures revealed that the subjects had inadvertently been placed next to the left wall of the room. Apparently asymmetrical visual stimulation during the assessment of conjugate lateral eye movement can affect the right versus left directionality of such movement, an interpretation consistent with earlier formulations and findings of the sensory-tonic theory of perception.
