Perception of verticality and cardiovascular responses during short-radius centrifugation.

摘要

These results suggest that one group of subject was relying principally on the otolith organs for the perception of verticality, whereas the other group was also relying on extravestibular somatosensory receptors. The crewmember's perception of verticality might be a factor to take into account for the prescription for artificial gravity during spaceflight.
