Abstract(in English) In the present study, we performed experiments to investigate the contribution of head movement for gazing target. In the experiment, subjects were required to gaze a single-word target displayed 7 to 40 degrees vertically or horizontally from the center by naturally moving their eye and head. Each trial was associated with either of two tasks: target recognition or pointing movement. Each target was displayed for 1 second or 3 seconds. Subject's head movements and eye movements were recorded during experiments. When targets were horizontally displayed, shares of head movements were largely varied between subjects, but relatively less varied within each subject. It was also found that pointing movements increased the shares of the head movement, and reduced the variance in the shares within each subject. Similar results were obtained when the targets were displayed upward. While targets were displayed downward, several subjects did not move their head for a large target eccentricity. These results suggest that contribution of the head movement for gazing target varies by attentional demands required by the tasks and by the direction of the targets.
