Abstract

The retinal location of a saccadic target was made discrepant with its perceived position by means of an induced displacement. If localizing the target required information stored in memory, the eye was directed to the perceived target position. Otherwise, it was directed to its retinal location. These findings do not conform to either a strictly retinotopic or spatiotopic model of oculomotor control. Rather they suggest that the position information used to program saccades may be either perceptual or retinal/spatial depending upon whether the information must be accessed from memory.
