Neurons which receive an input from the horizontal semicircular canals were recorded from the vestibular nuclei in chronically prepared monkeys (Macaca mulatta) during optokinetic after-nystagmus (OKAN). In complete darkness the vestibular neurons showed activity changes which closely paralleled the

In six rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) the effect of repetitive periods of whole-field optokinetic stimulation upon the different phases of optokinetic after-nystagmus (OKAN) was studied. The preceding optokinetic stimulus consisted of rotating a striped cylinder around the stationary monkey. Experi
Single neurons were recorded in the vestibular nuclei of monkeys trained to suppress nystagmus by visual fixation during vestibular or optokinetic stimulation. During optokinetic nystagmus vestibular nuclei neurons exhibit frequency changes. With the suppression of optokinetic nystagmus this neurona
Horizontal and vertical OKN and OKAN were recorded in four conditions using the EOG technique. Instructions to subjects were aimed at obtaining a "look" type OKN. Two optokinetic stimulators, a stationary sphere and a binocular portable model, were compared with the subject in the upright condition.
