Vestibular stimulation was induced by having 5 travel on a 3.8-sec. parallel swing. Two luminous disks were affixed to the swing in S's median and horizontal plane and two at angles of 40° and 80°, respectively. The diameter of one horizontal stimulus was changed in ascending and descending fashion. Each standard stimulus was presented individually for 3 sec. in a standing-still position. The swing release terminated the standard stimulus and activated the comparison stimulus for .2 sec. when S had reached his return point or when he had traveled three-quarters of the complete swing. Three 5s made "bigger" and "smaller" responses with the nondominant eye covered. The results of an analysis of variance showed significant differences between the 0°, 40°, and 80° conditions (p < .01) and a significant interaction between these conditions and 5s (p < .01). Induced vestibular activity was not significant. Eye movement (40° condition), however, did have a significant effect.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
