摘要：

Compensatory eye movements of Dutch belted rabbits were measured with the search coil technique during small (< 1°/arc) sinusoidal horizontal rotations at frequencies ranging from 0.063 to 11.5 Hz. Oculomotor compensation was substantial but not perfect. Gain ranged from 0.2 to 0.4 in the dark and from 0.4 to 0.6 in the light. This means that retinal image motion is considerable even when head movements are minuscule. Also, gains obtained with small rotations were lower than those obtained with large rotations-a result which suggests that the oculomotor system adjusts gain so that retinal image motion is sufficient to prevent perceptual fading yet not so great as to produce visual blurring. © 1979.
