Fig. 2: Monkeys’ saccadic behavior.
a Averaged position heat map for saccadic behavior, for all the sessions recorded (N = 71). The color axis represents the frequency of saccades (saccades/sec) as a function of the animal’s position in the maze. The white arrows indicate the direction of camera movements in each maze segment. b, c Scatter and associated box plots of the saccade rates (b) and durations (c) of Monkey K (N = 46 sessions; circles) and S (N = 25; triangles), for each session (total N = 71), depending on the animals’ position in the maze. The top and bottom limits of the boxes are the 75th and 25th percentiles of the sample, respectively; the central dot is the median; the whiskers go to the higher and lower adjacent values. For a better visibility, the outliers are not represented. Source data are provided as a Source Data file. The saccades rates and durations were significantly different between the 4 maze segments in each monkey (rates: Monkey K: Kruskal–Wallis: X²3df = 65.14, p = 4.69 × 10−14, Monkey S: X²3df = 48.17, p = 1.96 × 10−10; durations: Monkey K: X²3df = 36.76, p = 5.16 × 10−8, Monkey S: X²3df = 37.29, p = 4.00 × 10−8).
