摘要:
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of flight training on vestibuloocular reflex (VOR) induced by rotational chair test in student-pilots. The study group was divided into followings; control, prepilot (student-pilots before flight training), and student-pilot (after training). Gain, phase and symmetry of eye movement induced by sinusoidal harmonic acceleration with frequencies of 0.01, 0.02, 0.04, 0.08, 0.16, 0.32 Hz. Gain and phase did not show any significant differences between control and student-pilots before flight training in all frequencies. But there were significant gain differences between control and student-pilots after flight training in 0.01, 0.04, 0.08 frequencies. And phase showed significant differences between before and after flight training in student-pilots in 0.01, 0.04 Hz. These results suggest that the flight training would be attributable to modulate the vestibular function in the student-pilots.
