Abstract
The cerebellum plays an important role in predicting and producing regularly timed motor responses. In the present report, we examined the performance of SCA6 cerebellar patients and normal controls in a simple saccade tracking task. Our results imply that the cerebellum plays a role in maintaining predictive motor behavior once it has been established.
