Smooth pursuit eye movements and motion prediction in patients with schizophrenia and untrained healthy controls
Year: 2012
Type: article
Abstract: Contact: [email protected] • Schizophrenia patients show lower pursuit gain than controls and no perceptual performance advantage during pursuit; consistent with impaired motion processing and reduced MT activity Butler & Javitt, 2005; Kim et al., 2005; 2006 • Impaired sensory input to frontal pursuit areas (FEF/SEF) could explain deficits in using extraretinal motion information • Patients have higher eye position errors in trials with perceptual error, indicating an inability to compensate for sensory consequences of eye movements Conclusions Smooth eye velocity Saccades
