- 1967, Ashton Graybiel, The Effect of Water Immersion on Perception of the Oculogravic Illusion in Normal and Labyrinthine-defective Subjects:
- The separate and combined influences of otolith and nonotolith sensory inputs upon perception of the oculogravic illusion were investigated by manipulating the visual and gravitoinertial force environments.
- 2015 December 15, “Relationship between Spectral Characteristics of Spontaneous Postural Sway and Motion Sickness Susceptibility”, in PLOS ONE[1], :
- It has been shown that imposed accelerations above 0.2 Hz are usually perceived as translation of self through space, whereas imposed accelerations below that value are usually perceived as a change in direction of the gravitoinertial acceleration vector, i.e., tilt of self with respect to the assumed gravity vertical [38 ].
