Papers from the September 1994 symposium consider the interplay between perception and action and between reflexive and volitional motor acts, as well as between sensory driven or self-initiated motor acts and reafferent inputs. Topics include coordination and motor plan; the role of visual, vestibu

From recent developments in the rapidly growing area of neuroscience it has become increasingly clear that a simplistic description of brain function as a broad collection of simple input-output relations is quite inadequate. Introspection already tells us that our motor behavior is guided by a complex interplay between many inputs from the outside world and from our internal "milieu," internal models of ourselves and the outside world, memory content, directed attention, volition, and so forth.
