Static weight perception through skin stretch and kinesthetic information: detection thresholds, JNDs, and PSEs

We examined the contributions of kinesthetic and skin stretch cues to static weight perception. In three psychophysical experiments, several aspects of static weight perception were assessed by asking participants either to detect on which hand a …

The contributions of skin stretch and kinesthetic information to static weight perception

In this study, we examined the contributions of kinesthetic and skin stretch cues, in isolation and together, to the static perception of weight. In two psychophysical experiments, we asked participants either to detect on which hand a weight was …

Multisensory Perception: From Integration to Remapping

The brain receives information about the environment from all the sensory modalities, including vision, touch, and audition. To interact efficiently with the environment, this information must eventually converge to form a reliable and accurate …
