In my previous (Reinhardt-Rutland, 1982) study, I suggested that eye movements enhance induced rotary movement. However, low salience of absolute displacement might also explain the results, as displays were covered with large numbers of equally spaced radial pattern elements. To test these competing hypotheses in the present study, I used an unequally spaced pattern in two displays. Common to each display was an annulus: In one display, the common annulus surrounded a disk, and in the other display the common annulus was surrounded by another annulus. In any trial, one component rotated and the other was stationary while for 40 s the subject's eyes followed a circular path concentric with the display; subjects timed those occasions when perceived stronger rotation resided in the common annulus. Despite an unequally spaced pattern, absolute displacement had a barely significant effect. Instead, perceived stronger rotation mostly resided in a display's more central component. I concluded therefore that eye movements enhance induced rotary movement
