Walker CA, McBrayer LD. Stop, then go! Rapid acceleration offsets the costs of intermittent locomotion when turning in Florida scrub lizards. JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL ZOOLOGY. PART A, ECOLOGICAL AND INTEGRATIVE PHYSIOLOGY 2023; 339:853-860. [PMID: 37485808 DOI: 10.1002/jez.2735] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2023] [Revised: 06/29/2023] [Accepted: 07/03/2023] [Indexed: 07/25/2023]
Abstract
Intermittent locomotion is a common locomotor mode in small vertebrates. Pausing is thought to aid in locating a predator or prey, enhancing crypsis, lowering energy costs, and/or maneuvering around obstacles or toward a refuge. Many lizards flee predators by turning into potential refugia and subsequently pausing, presumably to conceal themselves. Intermittent locomotion may be associated with turning by allowing an animal time to assess its surroundings and/or decreasing the likelihood of losing its footing. In this study, we quantify locomotor performance and the use of intermittent locomotion in Florida scrub lizards (Sceloporus woodi) when navigating either a 45° or 90° turn. Lizards paused in 92.91% of all trials, and yet despite pausing, instantaneous speed was not different entering or exiting the turn. This result suggests that turning comes at minimal cost to forward speed for lizards under these conditions. Pausing during a turn, however, did slow speed in the turn. Interestingly, the speed in the turn did not differ in trials with a pause before the turn versus trials without a pause. The angle of the turn also had no effect on whether lizards paused. We found that lizards increase peak acceleration following pauses to compensate for lost speed during the pause, providing a mechanism that may minimize negative fitness effects associated with slow running speeds and allow intermittent locomotion to be such a common strategy in lizards.

Abstract
Background People with multiple sclerosis (PwMS) have balance deficits while ambulating through environments that contain moving objects or visual manipulations to perceived self-motion. However, their ability to parse object from self-movement has not been explored. The purpose of this research was to examine the effect of medial–lateral oscillations of the visual field and of objects within the scene on gait in PwMS and healthy age-matched controls using virtual reality (VR). Methods Fourteen PwMS (mean age 49 ± 11 years, functional gait assessment score of 27.8 ± 1.8, and Berg Balance scale score 54.7 ± 1.5) and eleven healthy controls (mean age: 53 ± 12 years) participated in this study. Dynamic balance control was assessed while participants walked on a treadmill at a self-selected speed while wearing a VR headset that projected an immersive forest scene. Visual conditions consisted of (1) no visual manipulations (speed-matched anterior/posterior optical flow), (2) 0.175 m mediolateral translational oscillations of the scene that consisted of low pairing (0.1 and 0.31 Hz) or (3) high pairing (0.15 and 0.465 Hz) frequencies, (4) 5 degree medial–lateral rotational oscillations of virtual trees at a low frequency pairing (0.1 and 0.31 Hz), and (5) a combination of the tree and scene movements in (3) and (4). Results We found that both PwMS and controls exhibited greater instability and visuomotor entrainment to simulated mediolateral translation of the visual field (scene) during treadmill walking. This was demonstrated by significant (p < 0.05) increases in mean step width and variability and center of mass sway. Visuomotor entrainment was demonstrated by high coherence between center of mass sway and visual motion (magnitude square coherence = ~ 0.5 to 0.8). Only PwMS exhibited significantly greater instability (higher step width variability and center of mass sway) when objects moved within the scene (i.e., swaying trees). Conclusion Results suggest the presence of visual motion processing errors in PwMS that reduced dynamic stability. Specifically, object motion (via tree sway) was not effectively parsed from the observer’s self-motion. Identifying this distinction between visual object motion and self-motion detection in MS provides insight regarding stability control in environments with excessive external movement, such as those encountered in daily life.

Abstract
Judging object speed during observer self-motion requires disambiguating retinal stimulation from two sources: self-motion and object motion. According to the Flow Parsing hypothesis, observers estimate their own motion, then subtract the retinal corresponding motion from the total retinal stimulation and interpret the remaining stimulation as pertaining to object motion. Subtracting noisier self-motion information from retinal input should lead to a decrease in precision. Furthermore, when self-motion is only simulated visually, self-motion is likely to be underestimated, yielding an overestimation of target speed when target and observer move in opposite directions and an underestimation when they move in the same direction. We tested this hypothesis with a two-alternative forced-choice task in which participants judged which of two motions, presented in an immersive 3D environment, was faster. One motion interval contained a ball cloud whose speed was selected dynamically according to a PEST staircase, while the other contained one big target travelling laterally at a fixed speed. While viewing the big target, participants were either static or experienced visually simulated lateral self-motion in the same or opposite direction of the target. Participants were not significantly biased in either motion profile, and precision was only significantly lower when participants moved visually in the direction opposite to the target. We conclude that, when immersed in an ecologically valid 3D environment with rich self-motion cues, participants perceive an object's speed accurately at a small precision cost, even when self-motion is simulated only visually.

Abstract
In this manuscript, we comprehensively review both the human and animal literature regarding vestibular and multi-sensory contributions to self-motion perception. This covers the anatomical basis and how and where the signals are processed at all levels from the peripheral vestibular system to the brainstem and cerebellum and finally to the cortex. Further, we consider how and where these vestibular signals are integrated with other sensory cues to facilitate self-motion perception. We conclude by demonstrating the wide-ranging influences of the vestibular system and self-motion perception upon behavior, namely eye movement, postural control, and spatial awareness as well as new discoveries that such perception can impact upon numerical cognition, human affect, and bodily self-consciousness.

Abstract
Anodal direct current stimulation (DCS) of the cerebellum facilitates adaptation tasks, but the mechanism underlying this effect is poorly understood. We have evaluated whether the effects of DCS effects depend on plasticity of cerebellar Purkinje cells (PCs). Here, we have successfully developed a mouse model of cerebellar DCS, allowing us to present the first demonstration of cerebellar DCS driven behavioral changes in rodents. We have utilized a simple gain down vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) adaptation paradigm, that stabilizes a visual image on the retina during brief head movements, as behavioral tool. Our results provide evidence that anodal stimulation has an acute post-stimulation effect on baseline gain reduction of VOR (VOR gain in sham, anodal and cathodal groups are 0.75 ± 0.12, 0.68 ± 0.1, and 0.78 ± 0.05, respectively). Moreover, this anodal induced decrease in VOR gain is directly dependent on the PP2B medicated synaptic long-term potentiation (LTP) and intrinsic plasticity pathways of PCs.

Abstract
Static body equilibrium is an essential requisite for human daily life. It is known that visual and vestibular systems must work together to support equilibrium. However, the relationship between these two systems is not fully understood. In this work, we present the results of a study which identify the interaction of brain areas that are involved with concurrent visual and vestibular inputs. The visual and the vestibular systems were individually and simultaneously stimulated, using flickering checkerboard (without movement stimulus) and galvanic current, during experiments of functional magnetic resonance imaging. Twenty-four right-handed and non-symptomatic subjects participated in this study. Single visual stimulation shows positive blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) responses (PBR) in the primary and associative visual cortices. Single vestibular stimulation shows PBR in the parieto-insular vestibular cortex, inferior parietal lobe, superior temporal gyrus, precentral gyrus and lobules V and VI of the cerebellar hemisphere. Simultaneous stimulation shows PBR in the middle and inferior frontal gyri and in the precentral gyrus. Vestibular- and somatosensory-related areas show negative BOLD responses (NBR) during simultaneous stimulation. NBR areas were also observed in the calcarine gyrus, lingual gyrus, cuneus and precuneus during simultaneous and single visual stimulations. For static visual and galvanic vestibular simultaneous stimulation, the reciprocal inhibitory visual-vestibular interaction pattern is observed in our results. The experimental results revealed interactions in frontal areas during concurrent visual-vestibular stimuli, which are affected by intermodal association areas in occipital, parietal, and temporal lobes.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The aim is to reappraise the current state about what we know of vestibular cognition. The review focuses on cognition and perception, and hence the stress on human studies. In addition, the cerebral cortex is the main but not exclusive brain region of interest. There is a brief mention of vestibular ocular function if only to demonstrate the differential processing between reflex and perception. The effect of vestibular activation on some aspects of cognition, for example neglect, is not reviewed, as there have been no recent landmark findings in this area. RECENT FINDINGS The vestibular cerebellum is pivotal in the differential gating of vestibular perceptual and ocular signals to the cerebral cortex. The neuroanatomical correlates mediating vestibular sensations of self-motion ('am I moving?') and spatial orientation ('where am I now?') are distinct. Vestibular-motion perception is supported by a widespread white matter network. Vestibular activation specifically reduces visual motion cortical excitability, whereas other visual cortical regions show an increase in excitability. SUMMARY As the vestibular ocular reflex (VOR) and self-motion perception can be uncoupled both behaviourally and in neural correlate, deficits underlying vestibular patients' symptoms may not be revealed by simple VOR assessment. Given the pivotal cerebellar role in gating vestibular signals to perceptual regions, modulating mechanisms of cerebellar plasticity, for example by combining training with medication or brain stimulation, may prove fruitful in treating the symptoms of chronic dizzy patients.

Abstract
Head movement imposes the additional burdens on the visual system of maintaining visual acuity and determining the origin of retinal image motion (i.e., self-motion vs. object-motion). Although maintaining visual acuity during self-motion is effected by minimizing retinal slip via the brainstem vestibular-ocular reflex, higher order visuovestibular mechanisms also contribute. Disambiguating self-motion versus object-motion also invokes higher order mechanisms, and a cortical visuovestibular reciprocal antagonism is propounded. Hence, one prediction is of a vestibular modulation of visual cortical excitability and indirect measures have variously suggested none, focal or global effects of activation or suppression in human visual cortex. Using transcranial magnetic stimulation-induced phosphenes to probe cortical excitability, we observed decreased V5/MT excitability versus increased early visual cortex (EVC) excitability, during vestibular activation. In order to exclude nonspecific effects (e.g., arousal) on cortical excitability, response specificity was assessed using information theory, specifically response entropy. Vestibular activation significantly modulated phosphene response entropy for V5/MT but not EVC, implying a specific vestibular effect on V5/MT responses. This is the first demonstration that vestibular activation modulates human visual cortex excitability. Furthermore, using information theory, not previously used in phosphene response analysis, we could distinguish between a specific vestibular modulation of V5/MT excitability from a nonspecific effect at EVC.

Abstract
AbstractAccording to the traditional inferential theory of perception, percepts of object motion or stationarity stem from an evaluation of afferent retinal signals (which encode image motion) with the help of extraretinal signals (which encode eye movements). According to direct perception theory, on the other hand, the percepts derive from retinally conveyed information only. Neither view is compatible with a perceptual phenomenon that occurs during visually induced sensations of ego motion (vection). A modified version of inferential theory yields a model in which the concept of extraretinal signals is replaced by that of reference signals, which do not encode how the eyes move in their orbits but how they move in space. Hence reference signals are produced not only during eye movements but also during ego motion (i.e., in response to vestibular stimulation and to retinal image flow, which may induce vection). The present theory describes the interface between self-motion and object-motion percepts. An experimental paradigm that allows quantitative measurement of the magnitude and gain of reference signals and the size of the just noticeable difference (JND) between retinal and reference signals reveals that the distinction between direct and inferential theories largely depends on: (1) a mistaken belief that perceptual veridicality is evidence that extraretinal information is not involved, and (2) a failure to distinguish between (the perception of) absolute object motion in space and relative motion of objects with respect to each other. The model corrects these errors, and provides a new, unified framework for interpreting many phenomena in the field of motion perception.

Abstract
To better understand motion perception in immersive virtual environments, we conducted a user study to quantify perception of scene motion as subjects yawed their heads. We measured psychometric functions of scene-velocity thresholds for different head motions and then extracted 75% thresholds, creating scene-velocity thresholds as functions of three measures of head motion: 1) Angular Range, 2) Peak Angular Velocity, 3) and Peak Angular Acceleration. We also measured scene-velocity thresholds for four phases of head motion: 1) the Start of the head turn, 2) the Center of the head turn, 3) the End of the head turn, 4) and All of the head turn. Scene-velocity thresholds increased as head motion increased for all tested conditions.

Abstract
When a slowly moving pattern is presented on a monitor which itself is moved, the pattern appears to freeze on the screen (Mesland and Wertheim in Vis Res 36(20):3325–3328, 1996) even if we move our head with the monitor, as with a head mounted display (Pavard and Berthoz in Perception 6:529–540, 1977). We present a simple model of these phenomena, which states that the perceived relative velocity between two stimuli (the pattern and the moving monitor) is proportional to the difference between the perceived velocities of these stimuli in space, minus a noise factor. The latter reflects the intrinsic noise in the neural signals that encode retinal image velocities. With noise levels derived from the literature the model fits empirical data well and also predicts strong distortions of visually perceived motion during vestibular stimulation, thus explaining both illusions as resulting from the same mechanism.

Abstract
As arboreal primates move through the jungle, they are immersed in visual motion that they must distinguish from the movement of predators and prey. We recorded dorsal medial superior temporal (MSTd) cortical neuronal responses to visual motion stimuli simulating self-movement and object motion. MSTd neurons encode the heading of simulated self-movement in three-dimensional (3-D) space. 3-D heading responses can be evoked either by the large patterns of visual motion in optic flow or by the visual object motion seen when an observer passes an earth-fixed landmark. Responses to naturalistically combined optic flow and object motion depend on their relative directions: an object moving as part of the optic flow field has little effect on neuronal responses. In contrast, an object moving separately from the optic flow field has large effects, decreasing the amplitude of the population response and shifting the population's heading estimate to match the direction of object motion as the object moves toward central vision. These effects parallel those seen in human heading perception with minimal effects of objects moving with the optic flow and substantial effects of objects violating the optic flow. We conclude that MSTd can contribute to navigation by supporting 3-D heading estimation, potentially switching from optic flow to object cues when a moving object passes in front of the observer.

Abstract
Self-motion through a three-dimensional array of objects creates a radial flow pattern on the retina. We superimposed a simulated object moving in depth on such a flow pattern to investigate the effect of the flow pattern on judgments of both the time to collision (TTC) with an approaching object and the trajectory of that object. Our procedure allowed us to decouple the direction and speed of simulated self motion-in-depth (MID) from the direction and speed of simulated object MID. In Experiment 1 we found that objects with the same closing speed were perceived to have a higher closing speed when self-motion and object-motion were in the same direction and a lower closing speed when they were in the opposite direction. This effect saturated rapidly as the ratio between the speeds of self-motion and object-motion was increased. In Experiment 2 we found that the perceived direction of object-MID was shifted towards the focus of expansion of the flow pattern. In Experiments 3 and 4 we found that the erroneous biases in perceived speed and direction produced by simulated self-motion were significantly reduced when binocular information about MID was added. These findings suggest that the large body of research that has studied motion perception using stationary observers has limited applicability to situations in which both the observer and the object are moving.

Abstract
We investigated gaze-stabilizing reflexes in the chameleon using the three-dimensional search-coil technique. Animals were rotated sinusoidally around an earth-vertical axis under head-fixed and head-free conditions, in the dark and in the light. Gain, phase and the influence of eye position on vestibulo-ocular reflex rotation axes were studied. During head-restrained stimulation in the dark, vestibulo-ocular reflex gaze gains were low (0.1-0.3) and phase lead decreased with increasing frequencies (from 100 degrees at 0.04 Hz to < 30 degrees at 1 Hz). Gaze gains were larger during stimulation in the light (0.1-0.8) with a smaller phase lead (< 30 degrees) and were close to unity during the head-free conditions (around 0.6 in the dark, around 0.8 in the light) with small phase leads. These results confirm earlier findings that chameleons have a low vestibulo-ocular reflex gain during head-fixed conditions and stimulation in the dark and higher gains during head-free stimulation in the light. Vestibulo-ocular reflex eye rotation axes were roughly aligned with the head's rotation axis and did not systematically tilt when the animals were looking eccentrically, up- or downward (as predicted by Listing's Law). Therefore, vestibulo-ocular reflex responses in the chameleon follow a strategy, which optimally stabilizes the entire retinal images, a result previously found in non-human primates.

When observers judged their direction of movement, or heading, they used 3 related invariants: The (a) convergence and (b) decelerating divergence of any 2 poles specified that heading was to the outside of the nearer pole, and the (c) crossover of 2 poles specified that heading was to the outside of the farther pole. With all poles stationary, the field of 45 pairwise movements yielded a coherent specification of heading. With I pole moving with respect to the others, however, the field could yield an incoherent heading solution. Such incoherence was readily detectable; similar pole motion leading to coherent flow, however, was less readily detectable.

Abstract
Based on Silverman and Eals' hunter-gatherer theory of the origin of sex-specific spatial attributes, the present research sought to identify the evolved mechanisms involved in hunting that contribute to the dimorphism. The focus of these studies was the relationship between three-dimensional mental rotations, the spatial test showing the largest and most reliable sex difference favoring males, and wayfinding in the woods. Space constancy was presumed to be the evolved mechanism fundamental to both of these abilities. Measures of wayfinding were derived by leading subjects individually on a circuitous route through a wooded area, during which they were stopped at prescribed places and required to set an arrow pointing in the direction the walk began. As well, subjects were eventually required to lead the experimenters back to the starting point by the most direct route. In support of the hypotheses, males excelled on the various measures of wayfinding, and wayfinding was significantly related across sexes to mental rotations scores but not to nonrotational spatial abilities or general intelligence.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the role of background texture on an interception task during self-motion. Twenty-six participants modulated tricycle speed along one arm of a V-shaped track so as to intercept a ball approaching horizontally on the other arm of the V. Either a plain or a textured background (consisting of contrasting vertical stripes) was used. Velocity modulations occurred so as to keep the angle beta between the direction of heading and the line head-ball constant (constant bearing angle, or CBA strategy), indicating that this observer-environment relation might regulate the approach phase. In the textured condition, participants initially drove faster than predicted by the CBA model and compensated by slowing down in the second half. This is in line with the texture-induced overestimation of the ball velocity and implies that absolute velocity information is also used.

Abstract
We recorded the responses of 189 medial superior temporal area (MST) neurons by using optic flow, real translational movement, and combined stimuli in which matching directions of optic flow and real translational movement were presented together. One-half of the neurons (48%) showed strong responses to optic flow simulating self-movement in the horizontal plane, and 24% showed strong responses to translational movement. Combining optic flow stimuli with matching directions of translational movement caused substantial changes in both the amplitude of the best responses (44% of neurons) and the strength of direction selectivity (71% of neurons), with little effect on which stimulus direction was preferred. However, combining optic flow and translational movement such that opposite directions were presented together changed the preferred direction in 45% of the neurons with substantial changes in the strength of direction selectivity. These studies suggest that MST neurons combine visual and vestibular signals to enhance self-movement detection and disambiguate optic flow that results from either self-movement or the movement of large objects near the observer.

Abstract
We have previously shown that during self-motion in car driving situations, the perception of another car's trajectory relies both on global visual information such as the optical flow field, and on local visual information such as the optical motion of the other car and the relative optical motion of the other car with respect to fixed elements in the environment. Here, we studied the environmental factors that contribute to perceptual judgements in relation to the observer's perceptual style (visual-field dependence vs. visual-field independence). In an experiment, observers were presented with visual scenes corresponding to the curvilinear self-motion of a driver approaching an intersection where another vehicle was arriving perpendicularly. The factors manipulated were the presence or absence of a spatial reference point (road sign near the intersection), environmental complexity ("road" or "spot" scenes), and the degree of field dependence/independence. Nine field-independent (FI) subjects and seven field-dependent (FD) subjects were asked to predict whether the other vehicle would reach the intersection before or after they would. Their responses were analyzed. Overall, subjects' judgements were more accurate with road environments and with a road sign, suggesting that the relative motion of the other vehicle with respect to fixed elements in the environment provides additional useful information. FI subjects were significantly more accurate than FD subjects, suggesting that the former are better at picking up relevant dynamic information in a complex environment.

Abstract
In many animal species, locomotion is frequently interrupted by brief pauses. This intermittent locomotion is usually considered a mode of prey search, but other possible functions include reduced detection or attack by predators and improved endurance. We tested the hypothesis that pauses also serve to improve vigilance for predators in two species of sciurid rodent. Videotaping animals travelling between food-collecting and food-hoarding sites revealed that numerous short pauses comprise 5-38% of the time spent 'moving' in grey squirrels, Sciurus carolinensis, and 0-41% in eastern chipmunks, Tamias striatus. In this situation, search for food items did not occur, and pausing did not reduce the total time spent as a moving stimulus for predators. It also appeared that speed while running was too slow and the pauses too brief to provide an endurance advantage. As predicted by the vigilance hypothesis, both species spent more time pausing when moving away from forest cover (presumably towards areas of higher risk) than when travelling back towards forest cover. In control trials within forest cover, squirrels did not differ in time pausing when approaching and leaving patches, but chipmunks paused more when approaching patches than when leaving them. We conclude that one function of pausing in squirrels is to improve anti-predator vigilance. The occurrence of pausing by chipmunks did not match a priori predictions of the vigilance hypothesis. Because it also failed to match predictions of previous alternative hypotheses, we suggest that studies are needed to examine whether the risk of attacks by conspecifics and predators is higher for chipmunks approaching than leaving food patches in forest habitat.

Abstract
During ego-motion an observer is often faced with the task of controlling his heading direction while simultaneously registering the movement of objects in order to avoid possible obstacles. Psychophysical experiments have shown that the detection of moving objects is impaired by concurrent ego-motion. We investigated the interaction between ego-motion and object-motion by examining the latencies of saccades executed to moving targets under a visually induced sensation of ego-motion. Saccadic latencies increased during this sensation, with a global or non-retinotopic effect of optic flow on motion detection. Furthermore, separating stereoscopically the moving target and the optic flow into foreground and background, respectively, still resulted in increased latencies. We propose that an inhibitory influence of the perception of self-motion exists on the perception of object-motion. These results support a model of space constancy which strives to create a stable world during locomotion.

Abstract
How close should an animal allow a potential predator to approach before fleeing to a refuge? Fleeing too soon wastes time and energy that could be spent on other important activities, but fleeing too late is potentially lethal. A model to predict flight initiation distance was developed, based on the assumption that animals would flee at a distance that allows them to reach the refuge ahead of the predator by some margin of safety. This model predicts that (1) flight initiation distance should increase with distance from the refuge (which has been supported by studies on several species) and (2) the rate of increase of flight initiation distance with distance from a refuge should be higher when the refuge is between the predator and prey (prey runs towards the predator) than when the prey is between the predator and the refuge (prey runs away from the predator). Prediction 2 was tested by approaching juvenile woodchucks, Marmota monaxalong an imaginary line between the animal and its burrow entrance and measuring the distance between the observer and the animal at the moment it started its flight. As predicted, the rate of increase in flight initiation distance was higher when the burrow was between the observer and the woodchuck than when the woodchuck was between the observer and the burrow. The slopes were appropriate for predators with pursuit speeds about twice the escape speed of the woodchucks. The difference between the slopes was 1.78 m flight distance/m distance to refuge, close to the value of 2 m flight distance/m distance to refuge predicted by the model. The intercept indicated that woodchucks allowed a margin of safety of about 7.6 m. The model permits quantitative evaluation of the principal elements of flexible escape decisions of animals and provides a measure of how predation risk increases the cost of space use in relation to distance from a refuge.

Abstract
We investigated, psychophysically, the influence of body rotation on visual motion direction thresholds for both upright sitting and tilted observers. Four angular accelerations (0, 20, 40 and 60 degrees/s2) were combined with 3 concurrent backward-tilt positions (0, 45 and 90 degrees). This led to combined stimulation of the semicircular canals and otoliths. Vestibular stimulation was combined with a visual motion stimulus. Random-dot kinematograms in which varying percentages of pixels coherently moving to the left were presented upon a background of otherwise randomly moving pixels (random walk). The smallest percentage of coherently moving pixels leading to a clear perception of motion direction represented as the perceptual threshold. Angular accelerations about the longitudinal body axis significantly increased motion-direction thresholds. Concurrent backward tilt did not influence thresholds. These results differ from those of studies in which translational linear acceleration was employed. Our results support the view that it is necessary to distinguish between linear acceleration caused by gravitational forces and that caused by additional linear accelerations about the x-, y-, and z-axes.

Abstract
We investigated whether linear whole-body acceleration along the interaural y-axis influenced the concurrent perception of visual motion direction as has been shown for angular accelerations. A sled running on air bearings along a 7.5-m track was used to accelerate 18 subjects at two different linear accelerations. These young, healthy volunteers, aged 25.50 +/- 7.38 years, used a joystick to indicate whether or not they perceived visual motion to the left within a random-dot kinematogram continuously presented on a monitor moving with them. The percentage of coherently leftward moving pixels presented for a 640-ms period during acceleration was adjusted according to a Modified Binary Search (MOBS) procedure. Six conditions were tested, two acceleration levels of 1 and 2 m/s2 to both left and right with, at the higher acceleration, two different times of visual motion presentation. Conditions were sequenced by means of a 6 x 6 Latin square balanced for order and carry over. A MANOVA did not show any statistically significant effects either for the independent variables acceleration, velocity, and direction of motion of the sled or for their interactions. The results obtained are in clear contrast to those obtained under rotatory stimulation. We conclude that the otolithic contribution to vestibular-visual motion processing is negligible.

Abstract
We compared the detection threshold for object motion with that of self-motion in space in healthy human subjects. Stimuli consisted of horizontal rotations of subjects' body with a fixation spot kept in fixed alignment with their heads (vestibular stimulus), rotation of the fixation spot relative to the stationary subjects (visuo-oculomotor stimulus), and a combination thereof by applying rotations of subjects body relative to the stationary object (sinusoidal oscillations, 0.025-0.4 Hz). Two series of experiments were performed. 1) One group of subjects was instructed to attend to, and to indicate the occurrence of, either object or self-motion. 2) A second group was instructed not only to detect the occurrence of a perception, but also to quality it either as object motion or self-motion, depending on which modality dominated perceptually. With either instruction it was found that all three stimulus conditions could evoke both, either an object motion perception or a self-motion perception. The detection thresholds of both perceptions were essentially similar. Thresholds were highest with the vestibular stimulus, intermediate with the stimulus combination, and lowest with the visuo-oculomotor stimulus. The vestibular threshold depended on stimulus frequency, in that it decreased with increasing frequency. Thereby, it became similar to the visuo-oculomotor one, which was essentially constant across frequency. Probability of occurrence of the perceptions in the first experimental series was considerably higher than in the second series, suggesting an important role of attentional mechanisms. In the second series, percent frequency of occurrence of veridical perception (object motion with visuo-oculomotor stimulus, self-motion with stimulus combination) was at chance level (50%) at low stimulus frequency, but was augmented considerably at high frequency. We assume that the latter effect is brought about by a visual-vestibular conflict measure by which the visual stimulus (light spot) is qualified as representing either a moving object or a spatial reference for self-motion. While at suprathreshold stimulus intensities the conflict can determine perception magnitude, at threshold levels its influence is restricted mainly on the probability of occurrence of object and self-motion perception.

Abstract
To examine the effect of concurrent self-motion on the perception of the direction of object-motion, random-dot kinematograms were employed in which the strength of the directional signal was manipulated by varying the percentage of coherently moving pixels. The subject's task was to indicate the motion direction of briefly presented displays while undergoing whole body rotations with angular accelerations of 0, 5, 15, or 45 degrees/s2. The perception of the direction of visual motion in the horizontal plane was impaired only when visual and vestibular motion directions were incongruous. The impairment increases with both increasing angular acceleration and decreasing percentage of coherently moving pixels. For object-motion in the vertical plane, an impairment was found for both congruous and incongruous combination of visual and vestibular stimulation, although not as pronounced for the latter (i.e., visual upward, vestibular downward stimulation, and vice versa). These results are discussed in terms of postnatal development and neurophysiological optimization processes resulting from intersensory 'updating' through every-day experience of object-motion during self-motion.
