THE NATURE OF NORMAL BLINKING PATTERNS [PDF]

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, 1982
The blinking patterns of 20 normal subjects were examined under controlled experimental conditions. While the mean blink rate was 12.55 blinks/min, there were marked variations between individuals. As well, each subject displayed a characteristic pattern

To blink or not to blink: inhibition and facilitation of reflex blinks

Experimental Brain Research, 1997
A reflex blink typically inhibits subsequent blinks. In this study, we investigated whether the nature and time course of this inhibition vary when different combinations of blink-evoking stimuli are used. We used the paired stimulus paradigm, in which two blink-evoking stimuli-a conditioning stimulus followed by a test stimulus-are presented with a ...

Blinks of the eye predict blinks of the mind

Neuropsychologia, 2008
The Attentional Blink (AB)--a deficit in reporting the second of two target stimuli presented in close succession in a rapid sequence of distracters--has been related to individual processing limitations of working memory. Given the known role of dopamine (DA) in working memory processes, the present experiment tested the hypothesis that DA, and in ...

The attentional blink

Trends in Cognitive Sciences, 1997
When two masked targets (T1 and T2) are presented within approximately 500 ms of each other, subjects are often unable to report the second of the two targets (T2) accurately, even though the first has been reported correctly. In contrast, subjects can report T2 accurately when instructed to ignore T1, or when T1 and T2 are separated by more than 500 ...

Blinking and Sleep

Nature, 1950
AS normal blinking is involuntary, it might be expected that blinking would proceed at its normal or at a somewhat reduced rate during sleep, as with breathing and the heart-beat. This is not so, however, though little seems to have been published on the subject, especially on the quantitative side. Whereas many of the muscles are relaxed during sleep,

Blink and click

Proceedings of the 1st international convention on Rehabilitation engineering & assistive technology: in conjunction with 1st Tan Tock Seng Hospital Neurorehabilitation Meeting, 2007
In this project, we have developed the computer assisting tool for persons who have hand moving problems. This software tool will help them to use a computer for those who cannot use mouse and keyboard properly. The tool detects human eyes and face actions to control mouse and keyboard as a pointer and input devices.

Ontogeny of spontaneous blinking and of habituation of the blink reflex

Annals of Neurology, 1979
AbstractHabituation of the blink reflex to glabellar percussion was examined in 164 infants and children from ages 2 days to 18 years and in 18 adults aged 18 to 50 years. Spontaneous blink rates were measured in 269 children and 179 adults. The mean number of glabellar taps required for habituation of the blink reflex increased from 2.7 (SD 1.2) at 0 ...

Blink Nystagmus

Archives of Otolaryngology, 1976
• A pattern of eye movement similar to vestibular nystagmus associated with blink is characterized. This artifact can be seen in asymptomatic, otologically normal subjects and is considered to have different meaning than lateral conjugate deviation of the eyes on forced closure of the lids (Cogan sign).

Blinking and Blepharospasm

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1983
To the Editor.— I would like to offer some comments on the article entitled "Blinking and Blepharospasm" (1982; 248:3160) by Jankovic and co-workers. In the opening sentence of the section on pathogenesis, the authors quote a reference from Hall from 1945 regarding the clinical significance of spontaneous blinking.
