Spatio-temporal properties of oculomotor activation by multiple, simultaneous peripheral stimuli

Oculomotor research shows that eye movements are primed toward the midpoint of an array of visual stimuli, such that an eye movement to a visual target is executed most rapidly when it appears near the midpoint of an earlier array. At longer intervals between the prime and target, this facilitatory effect can reverse to become inhibitory — such that eye movements are slower when made toward the midpoint – but the source of this inhibition is...
