The vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) can be suppressed in darkness if a subject tries to imagine that he looks at a head fixed target. This mental suppression of VOR was used to induce adaptive changes in VOR gain during 3 h of active head oscillations in complete darkness. VOR gain changes were tested

1. In the alert monkey neuronal activity was recorded in the ventro-posterior nucleus (VP) of the thalamus in the dark during sinusoidal rotation over a frequency range from 0.01-1 Hz. 2. From 57 neurons 38 (67%) were activated with rotation to the ipsilateral side (type I) and 19 (33%) to the contr
Horizontal and vertical eye movements were recorded in alert, restrained cats that were subjected to whole-body rotations with the horizontal semicircular canals in the plane of rotation and the body centered on the axis or 45 cm eccentric from the axis of rotation. Changes in the horizontal vestibu
