Faculty of Life Sciences, University of Manchester, Manchester, M60 1QD, UK
Exp Brain Res 163:198-203. 2005..We suggest, therefore, that the recovery was timed to the moment of target disappearance rather than reappearance, and was the result of reactivation of a variable gain mechanism that acts on the visuomotor drive to ocular pursuit... - Human ocular pursuit during the transient disappearance of a visual targetSimon J Bennett

Exp Brain Res 175:1-10. 2006..Rather, they are more consistent with the scaling of smooth pursuit eye movements by means of a more-persistent velocity-based representation, which plays a significant role in both random and blocked stimulus presentations... - Target acceleration can be extracted and represented within the predictive drive to ocular pursuitSimon J Bennett
Research Institute for Exercise and Sport Sciences, Liverpool John Moores University, Henry Cotton Campus, L3 2ET, Liverpool, UK
J Neurophysiol 98:1405-14. 2007..These results indicate that information on target acceleration can be extracted on-line, during pursuit of a visible ramp, and then used to drive a predictive oculomotor response in the absence of visual input... - Evidence for synergy between saccades and smooth pursuit during transient target disappearanceJean-Jacques Orban de Xivry
Center for Systems Engineering and Applied Mechanics, , Louvain-la-Neuve, Brussels, Belgium
J Neurophysiol 95:418-27. 2006..Based on prior experimental evidence, we hypothesize that this spatial remapping is carried out through interactions between a number of identified neurophysiological structures... - Anticipatory responses to perturbation of co-ordination in one-handed catchingChris Button

Acta Psychol (Amst) 109:75-93. 2002..When the catchers could not anticipate perturbations, movement strategies suggested the use of a continuous tracking-based mode of control rather than a prediction-based mode of control... - Effect of verbal instructions and image size on visual search strategies in basketball free throw shootingSaleh A Al-Abood

Acta Psychol (Amst) 127:407-15. 2008..These findings lead us to suggest that when the end-goal and the means to achieve the end-goal are directly linked, the means are given sufficient weight in the goal hierarchy such that the model's movement is imitated... - Visual guidance of landing behaviour when stepping down to a new levelJohn G Buckley
