From: Distinct modulation of microsaccades in motor planning and covert attention
Microsaccade direction over time. Microsaccade direction was binned into three categories. The probability of microsaccade direction falling in each category is depicted in the graphs together with the corresponding microsaccade rate over time as a reference. Error bars represent 95% confidence intervals. Asterisks mark a statistically significant difference (one-way statistical parametric mapping analysis of variance). (A) Perceptual detection experiment, direction cue epoch. (B) Motor preparation experiment, direction cue epoch. (C) Motor preparation experiment, motor planning epoch (reach trials). (D) Motor preparation experiment, motor planning epoch (saccade trials). In each graph, periods with a significant difference between the probability of having microsaccades: (i) directed towards the cued location and directed to the opposite hemifield (black continuous line); (ii) directed towards the cued location and directed to other locations (black dashed line); (iii) directed to the opposite location and directed to other locations (grey dashed line), are highlighted.
