Using this method of head fixation, we have been able to track the animals' eye positions with an accuracy of less than two visual degrees while they perform behavioral tasks.
A secondary screening procedure was used to exclude those detected microsaccades that were smaller than 0.15 visual degrees and larger than 2 visual degrees.
Images were scaled so that they were approximately 7.5×8 visual degrees on both monitor sizes.
Eyeblinks and large eye movements were then identified by the algorithm of Engbert and Kliegl [66] (velocity threshold = 10 std.; minimum duration = 5 units of time; velocity type = 2; amplitude bigger than 3.33 visual degrees).
These data in monkeys were obtained with relatively small stimuli (3.3 visual degrees), and tests with larger stimuli indicated that stimulus size has a substantial effect on estimated receptive field size [16].
The size of the rectangle containing each stimulus was 8 × 8 visual degrees; visual information for the scenes and the Fourier-scrambled images covered this area entirely, but that was not true for most faces and objects (see Fig. 1).
