1.1 1 xml info:srw/schema/1/mods-v3.2 Viewing and feeling touch modulates hand position for reaching Zopf Regine author Truong Sandra author Finkbeiner Matthew author Friedman Jason author Williams Mark A author 2011 Action requires knowledge of our body location in space. Here we asked if interactions with the external world prior to a reaching action influence how visual location information is used. We investigated if the temporal synchrony between viewing and feeling touch modulates the integration of visual and proprioceptive body location information for action. We manipulated the synchrony between viewing and feeling touch in the Rubber Hand Illusion paradigm prior to participants performing a ballistic reaching task to a visually specified target. When synchronous touch was given, reaching trajectories were significantly shifted compared to asynchronous touch. The direction of this shift suggests that touch influences the encoding of hand position for action. On the basis of this data and previous findings, we propose that the brain uses correlated cues from passive touch and vision to update its own position for action and experience of self-location. exported from refbase (https://refbase.nfshost.com/show.php?record=23), last updated on Sun, 24 Apr 2011 23:42:22 +0000 text https://refbase.nfshost.com/files/zopf/2011/23_Zopf_etal2011.pdf 10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2011.02.012 Zopf_etal2011 Neuropsychologia 2011 continuing periodical academic journal 49 5 1287–1293 1
