AUTOKINESIS AND FELT EYE POSITION.
Abstract
The experimental results indicate that autokinesis may be explained within the context of Duncker's theory of relative displacement. The nature of the displacement was found to be, in these experiments, a shift in the egocentric visual framework as mediated by felt rather than objective eye position. An explanation of the shift in felt eye position based on a change in afferent stimulation impinging on the eye is proposed. Implications of the theory for future research including an investigation of auditory autokinesis and felt head position are discussed. (Author)
