The effects of age and sex on the incidence of multiple step saccades and corrective saccades
ObjectiveAlthough multiple step saccades (MSS) is occasionally observed in healthy subjects, it is more pronounced in patients with aging-related neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Parkinson’s disease (PD).

Normal Pursuit-System Limitations— First Discovered in Infantile Nystagmus Syndrome
Infantile nystagmus syndrome (INS) patients occasionally have impaired pursuit. Model and patient data identified relative timing between target motion initiation and INS-waveform saccades as the cause. We used a new stimulus, the “step-pause-ramp” (SPR),

Following Forrest Gump: Smooth pursuit related brain activation during free movie viewing
Most fMRI studies investigating smooth pursuit (SP) related brain activity have used simple synthetic stimuli such as a sinusoidally moving dot. However, real-life situations are much more complex and SP does not occur in isolation but within sequences ...

Abnormal Eye Movements in Parkinsonism and Movement Disorders [PDF]
Abnormal eye movements are commonly observed in movement disorders. Ocular motility examination should include bedside evaluation and laboratory recording of ocular misalignment, involuntary eye movements, including nystagmus and saccadic intrusions ...

Looking away from faces: influence of high-level visual processes on saccade programming
Human faces capture attention more than other visual stimuli. Here we investigated whether such face-specific biases rely on automatic (involuntary) or voluntary orienting responses.

Saccade learning with concurrent cortical and subcortical basal ganglia loops [PDF]
The Basal Ganglia is a central structure involved in multiple cortical and subcortical loops. Some of these loops are believed to be responsible for saccade target selection.

A Score-level Fusion Method for Eye Movement Biometrics
This paper proposes a novel framework for the use of eye movement patterns for biometric applications. Eye movements contain abundant information about cognitive brain functions, neural pathways, etc.

Representation, space and Hollywood Squares: Looking at things that aren't there anymore [PDF]
It has been argued that the human cognitive system is capable of using spatial indexes or oculomotor coordinates to relieve working memory load (Ballard, Hayhoe, Pook & Rao, 1997) track multiple moving items through occlusion (Scholl & Pylyshyn, 1999) or

Influence of retinal image shifts and extra-retinal eye movement signals on binocular rivalry alternations. [PDF]
Previous studies have indicated that saccadic eye movements correlate positively with perceptual alternations in binocular rivalry, presumably because the foveal image changes resulting from saccades, rather than the eye movement themselves, cause ...

Searching and fixating: scale-invariance vs. characteristic timescales in attentional processes
In an experiment involving semantic search, the visual movements of sample populations subjected to visual and aural input were tracked in a taskless paradigm. The probability distributions of saccades and fixations were obtained and analyzed.
