The latency for saccadic eye movements to a visual stimulus was studied in 59 adults whose ages ranged from 20.7 to 79.5 years. All were free of neurologic disease and drug use. Horizontal eye movements were recorded by electrooculography and the latency from the onset of a peripheral visual stimulus to the onset of a saccadic refixation eye movement was determined. A linear regression analysis revealed a correlation between increasing age and increasing latency for saccadic refixation eye movements. The direct relationship between increasing age and increasing latency for saccadic eye movements is a factor that should be taken into account in eye-movement studies as well as other methodologies such as tachistoscopic studies in which saccadic eye movements play a role in study design.
对59名年龄在20.7岁至79.5岁之间的成年人进行了研究,以了解其对视觉刺激的眼球跳动潜伏期。所有参与者均无神经系统疾病且未使用药物。通过眼电图记录水平眼球运动,并确定从周边视觉刺激开始到眼球跳动重新注视运动开始的潜伏期。线性回归分析显示,年龄增长与眼球跳动重新注视运动的潜伏期增加之间存在相关性。年龄增长与眼球跳动潜伏期增加之间的直接关系是一个在眼球运动研究以及其他方法(如速示器研究,其中眼球跳动在研究设计中起作用)中应予以考虑的因素。
