When subjects track with the eyes an arm-attached target, eye latency is shorter than when tracking an external target. This improved synchrony could result from either a common command addressed to the two systems or from an influence of the arm command on eye motion initiation. According to the first hypothesis, the eyes should start moving long before the arm, because of the difference in dynamics. We recorded arm and eye motion together with biceps muscle activity in controls and a deafferented subject. Data support the second hypothesis. Moreover, the deafferented subject showed a lesser correlation between arm and eye motions than controls, suggesting a role for arm proprioception in the calibration of the temporal relationship between arm and eye movements.
