Quantitative measurement of saccade amplitude, duration, and velocity
Abstract
A method for rapid, accurate measurement of saccade amplitude, duration, and velocity (average and maximum) was developed as a functional test of the extraocular motor system. Recordings were made with a direct-current electro-oculographic system, and data analysis was performed on a laboratory digital computer. Saccade amplitude and duration were found to be linearly correlated in 25 normal subjects, with a mean slope of 2.7 msec per degree over a large amplitude range. In the same subjects, saccade amplitude and velocity (maximum or average) had a nonlinear relationship that was best fit by an exponential equation. The two constants of this equation adequately characterized the relationship between saccade amplitude and velocity and permitted rapid statistical comparison between normal and abnormal subjects.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
