Effects of the peripheral vision on visually induced vertigo.

ABSTRACT

Studied whether visually induced vertigo (motion sickness) is influenced by motion perception rather than shape perception. Human Ss: 13 normal female Japanese adults (undergraduate students). The effects of foveal vs peripheral vision on visually induced vertigo were compared by presenting 3 kinds of displays involving videotaped motion: foveal vision, peripheral vision, and foveal plus peripheral vision.
