Abstract
► Smooth pursuit eye movements stabilize the image of a moving object on the retina. ► Visual areas MT/MST integrate retinal and extra-retinal signals during pursuit. ► The visual system compensates for the retinal motion component caused by pursuit. ► Pursuit compensation is incomplete, resulting in illusory perception of motion. ► In schizophrenia, pursuit-related retinal motion is misattributed to external sources.
