Objectives/HypothesisThe purpose of this study is to examine the range of vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) gain on rotary chair (RC) testing in subjects without ear and vestibular problems stratified by age and gender.Study DesignProspective cross-sectional study.MethodsOne hundred subjects ranging in age from 6 to 78 years underwent RC testing. VOR gains at frequencies ranging from 0.01 to 0.64 Hz were recorded. The PROC MIXED procedure in SAS was used to analyze differences in VOR gain between gender and the following age groups: group 1 (6-12 years), group 2 (13-17 years), group 3 (18-30 years), group 4 (31-50 years), and group 5 (>50 years).ResultsTwenty subjects were recruited for each of the five groups. Group 1 showed the highest average VOR gain compared to all other age groups (P
