title: Saccades--random or constant stimuli and predictive adaptability.
abstract: The influence of the predictive adaptability on saccades was studied in 20 normal subjects ranging in age from 18 to 43 years. The average velocity of random and constant saccades showed almost the same results. The maximum velocity of constant saccades was slightly faster than that of the random saccades. The latency of the random saccades was shorter than that of the constant ones. Thus, the predictive adaptability of the stimuli has little influence on the maximum velocity and on the latency of saccades in normal subjects.
