This dataset contains behavioral data assessing the sensitivity of five human subjects (one female and four male) to higher-order moments of motion as applied to random dot kinematograms. The dots were manipulated by probability distributions that systematically differed in their mean, variance, skewness, or kurtosis. Following training sessions where they reached at least 80% accuracy, subjects were asked to saccade to the location of an "odd" region embedded within a large random dot kinematogram; dots in that region moved differently than the rest of the kinematogram. Subjects were allotted 10 seconds to respond and received simple auditory feedback immediately after each trial. Gaze position was evaluated with a high-speed infrared camera.

Data from a total of 5,349 trials are available for analysis. The data includes trial data, which contains a table with data corresponding to each trial, which describes subject id, odd motion condition name, odd motion correctly identified, reaction time, coordinates of odd aperture center, coordinates of saccade landing point, and trial wise statistics of odd dot displacements.
