The response of the vestibulo-ocular reflex to constant angular acceleration was investigated in healthy subjects using various stimulus amplitudes and stimulus durations. For stimulus amplitudes of 1.06 and 2.13 degrees/s2 the peracceleratory response maximum at 43 s was always followed by a decline in response. This decay was less pronounced for the longer stimulus duration suggesting a nonreturn to the zero baseline. From a comparison with the theoretical model it can be deduced that the gain of the adaptation mechanism is less than unity.
在健康受试者中，使用不同的刺激幅度和刺激持续时间，研究了前庭眼反射对恒定角加速度的反应。对于1.06和2.13度/秒²的刺激幅度，在43秒时的加速度反应最大值之后，反应总是会下降。对于较长的刺激持续时间，这种衰减不太明显，表明不会恢复到零基线。通过与理论模型比较可以推断，适应机制的增益小于1。
