Object-motion detection affected by concurrent self-motion perception: psychophysics of a new phenomenon.
TLDR
This new visual phenomenon of a physiological 'inhibitory interaction' between object- and self-motion perception seems to have a somatosensory motor analogue.About:

Frequency and velocity of rotational head perturbations during locomotion.
TL;DR: During locomotion, the head is stabilized in space incompletely but adequately so that the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) is not saturated and during vigorous, voluntary head rotations, the maximum head velocity exceeds the range where the VOR can stabilize gaze.

The Behavioral Ecology of Intermittent Locomotion1
TL;DR: Although intermittent locomotion is usually expected to increase energetic costs as a result of additional expenditure for acceleration and deceleration, a variety of energetic benefits can arise when forward movement continues during pauses, and Endurance also can be improved by partial recovery from fatigue during pauses.
Journal ArticleDOI
MST Neurons Respond to Optic Flow and Translational Movement
TL;DR: It is suggested that MST neurons combine visual and vestibular signals to enhance self-movement detection and disambiguate optic flow that results from either self- Movement or the movement of large objects near the observer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolved mechanisms underlying wayfinding. further studies on the hunter-gatherer theory of spatial sex differences.
TL;DR: In support of the hypotheses, males excelled on the various measures of wayfinding, and wayfinding was significantly related across sexes to mental rotations scores but not to nonrotational spatial abilities or general intelligence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Motion perception during selfmotion: The direct versus inferential controversy revisited
TL;DR: The present theory describes the interface between self-motion and object-motion percepts and provides a new, unified framework for interpreting many phenomena in the field of motion perception.

Visual-Vestibular Interaction: Effects on Self-Motion Perception and Postural Control
Johannes Dichgans,Thomas Brandt +1 more
TL;DR: The self-motion illusion is a common visual illusion which allows inferences concerning visual-vestibular interaction as mentioned in this paper, and it may be perceived while gazing at moving clouds, streaming water, or when a train moves on the adjacent track in a railway station.
Journal ArticleDOI
Perception of linear horizontal self-motion induced by peripheral vision (linearvection) basic characteristics and visual-vestibular interactions.
TL;DR: Conflicting situations in which visual cues contradict vestibular and other proprioceptive cues show, in the case of linearvection a dominance of vision which supports the idea of an essential although not independent role of vision in self motion perception.

Velocity-dependent suppression of cutaneous sensitivity during movement.
TL;DR: Cutaneous sensory thresholds were measured at the index fingertip of eight normal subjects and the correlations between sensory suppression and speed of movement agree with previous findings obtained using experimental animals and somatosensory-evoked responses.
