Abstract(in English) We studied effects of smooth pursuit on ocular responses to brief movements of the background. The subjects were required to pursue a target moving horizontally at constant speeds. A brief movement (40ms, 60^O/s) of the background in one of the 4 directions (right, left, up, down) was introduced during the steady-state pursuit eye movements. As a control, when the subject was fixating a stationary spot, a brief background motion was introduced. When the subject was fixating a stationary spot, a brief background motion elicits little response with a short latency. A large response to the same brief background motion was observed when the subject was pursuing a moving target with the stationary background, but only when the background motion was in the same direction as the pursuit. The response to the background motion was weak when its direction was opposite to the pursuit. On the ther hand, when the subject was pursuing the targt while the background was moving together, the same brief movement of the background increased the response amplitude in all the directions.
