Purkinje cell activities in the cerebellar nodulus and uvula were recorded during head rotation or optokinetic stimulation in either vertical or horizontal plane in cats. Most of the cells responded during sinusoidal vertical head rotation. Cells demonstrating the strongest response to either pitch or diagonal planes tended to be located in a parasagittal band close to midline, whereas cells showing the best response to the roll plane tended to be located more laterally. Based on the frequency analysis of simple-spike responses, the responding cells were classified into two types: head-position and head-velocity types. This study was carried out as a part of 'Ground-based Research Announcement for Space Utilization' promoted by Japan Space Forum.
