Experiments showed that the human capacity to maintain a particular isometric force in the presence of visual feedback during a force-level, pursuit-tracking experiment is less developed for the jaw-closing muscles than for the limb muscles. This finding may indicate that the projection on the trigeminal motoneurone pool from visual inputs is poor, or that the trigeminal effector system itself is less finely tuned.
