Attentional load inhibits vection [PDF]

open access: yesAttention, Perception, and Psychophysics, 2011
In this study, we examined the effects of cognitive task performance on the induction of vection. We hypothesized that, if vection requires attentional resources, performing cognitive tasks requiring attention should inhibit or weaken it. Experiment 1 tested the effects on vection of simultaneously performing a rapid serial visual presentation (RSVP ...

Vection and Simulator Sickness

Military Psychology, 1990
Simulator sickness has been identified as a form of motion sickness in which users of simulators exhibit symptoms characteristic of true motion sickness. In a fixed-base simulator, visual and vestibular sources of information specifying dynamic orientation are in conflict to the extent that the optical flow pattern viewed by the pilot creates a ...

Vection in Patients with Glaucoma

Optometry and Vision Science, 2014
ABSTRACT Purpose Large moving scenes can induce a sensation of self‐motion in stationary observers. This illusion is called “vection.” Glaucoma progressively affects the functioning of peripheral vision, which plays an important role in inducing vection.

Podokinetic circular vection: characteristics and interaction with optokinetic circular vection

Experimental Brain Research, 2016
Stabilising horizontal body orientation in space without sight on a rotating platform by holding to a stationary structure and circular 'treadmill' stepping in the opposite direction can elicit an illusion of self-turning in space (Bles and Kapteyn in Agressologie 18:325-328, 1977).

Social Inhibition of Vection ()

open access: yesPsychology, 2013
The purpose of this study was to examine whether the social interaction can affect vection strength. We compared the strength of self-motion perception (vection) with and without an audience (two people in addition to the participant) present during stimulus presentation.

Inhibition of vection by grasping an object

Experimental Brain Research, 2018
The present study investigated whether vection could be modified by an object grasping movement. Twenty-five university students were asked to do one of the following four types of left-hand movements while they were viewing a radial optic flow: (1) grasping the hand-gripper strongly; (2) holding the hand-gripper; (3) clenching fist strongly; and (4 ...

Positional and directional preponderances in vection

Experimental Brain Research, 2008
We examined the biases in vection strength caused by motion direction (temporonasal vs. nasotemporal motion) and position of stimulus presentation (nasal and temporal semi-retinas) to investigate a subcortical contribution to vection. These biases have been identified for optokinetic nystagmus (OKN) and are acknowledged as evidence for a subcortical ...

Up-down asymmetry in vertical vection

open access: yesVision Research, 2015
To investigate whether up-down asymmetry similar to that reported in vertical optokinetic nystagmus (OKN), that is, larger OKN responses for upward motion than for downward motion, would appear in vertical vection, we conducted three experiments. In all three experiments, participants viewed a vertically moving random-dot pattern.

Influence of fixation on circular vection

Journal of Vestibular Research, 2000
The contribution of fixation to latency of circular vection (CV) was examined in twenty-five normal adults aged 18–30 years. For induction of self-motion a random dot pattern was projected onto a hemispherical dome. The pattern was rotated either about the subject’s vertical axis or about their interaural axis at a constant acceleration of 1 deg / s 2 .

Alcohol Consumption Enhances Vection

Perception, 2013
We assessed changes in forward vection following alcohol consumption, and found that alcohol consumption enhanced vection. This result indicates that alcohol can affect psychophysical processes responsible for self-motion perception.
