Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the influence of ``undetectable motions'', the motion information under the perception threshold, on cognitive functions by statistical analyses of the property of fixation eye movements. Subjects performed rapid serial visual presentation (RSVP) tasks with undetectable or ambiguous motions in the background while maintaining their fixation. We evaluated the influence of these motions on top-down attention mechanism by analyzing fixation eye movements. The results suggest that microsaccade rates were correlated with subliminal motion information, and fluctuations of drift eye movements were modulated by low-contrast motions in the peripheral vision.
