It has been studied on the mechanism of ci from the view of the interaction among semicircular canal , otolith organ and proprioceptor . but the studies on neurophysiology mechanism are not enough . some scholars think that a great number of 5 - hydroxytryptamine ( 5 - ht ) accumulating in nerve center , which induced by protein disturbance of metabolism resulting from acceleration stimulation , resulted in vestibular illusions 对于科里奥利错觉的发生机制，目前仅从半规管、耳石器、躯体本体感受器相互作用角度进行了探讨，缺乏对其中枢生理机制的研究，有学者认为，加速度作用造成的蛋白质代谢障碍，引起5 -羟色胺在中枢的大量堆积，是造成前庭性错觉的主要原因。
