In this review an attempt is made to sketch the history of motor theories in the fields of perception and cognition. The term “motor theory” has never been well defined; in the absence of an accepted definition, it will be used to denote a theory which maintains that movement or its sensory consequences are a constituent element of a mental process, such that the process would not exist or would have different qualities, had the motor component been absent. The review will be restricted to visual perception and cognition, and emphasis will be placed on eye movements. A complete inventory of motor theories will not be given; rather, I intend to describe three lines of thought to which most motor theories can be related.
