Response requirements modulate tactile spatial congruency effects

A Gallace, S Soto-Faraco, P Dalton, B Kreukniet… - Experimental Brain …, 2008 - Springer
Several recent studies have provided support for the view that tactile stimuli/events are
remapped into an abstract spatial frame of reference beyond the initial somatotopic …

Integration of visual and tactile stimuli: top-down influences require time

DI Shore, N Simic - Experimental Brain Research, 2005 - Springer
In a visuotactile congruency task, a distracting flash of light presented near a tactile target
can influence speeded judgments of tactile location. Localization of the tactile target is more …

Performing a vibrotactile discrimination task modulates finger representations in primary somatosensory cortex

F Rabe, S Kikkert, N Wenderoth - Journal of …, 2023 - journals.physiology.org
It is well established that vibrotactile stimuli are represented in somatotopic maps. However,
less is known about whether these somatotopic representations are modulated by task …

Tactile remapping beyond space

E Azanon, K Camacho… - European Journal of …, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
Reacting to a touch on the skin often requires the remapping of the initial somatotopicaly‐
based representation of the stimulus into an external frame of reference that incorporates …

Investigating the effect of a transparent barrier on the crossmodal congruency effect

N Kitagawa, C Spence - Experimental Brain Research, 2005 - Springer
A transparent barrier, such as a window, protects us from approaching objects (such as
flies), although we can still see the objects coming toward us through the occluder. In the …

Fronto-parietal brain responses to visuotactile congruence in an anatomical reference frame

J Limanowski, F Blankenburg - Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2018 - frontiersin.org
Spatially and temporally congruent visuotactile stimulation of a fake hand together with one's
real hand may result in an illusory self-attribution of the fake hand. Although this illusion …

When vision influences the invisible distractor: tactile response compatibility effects require vision.

AK Wesslein, C Spence, C Frings - Journal of Experimental …, 2014 - psycnet.apa.org
Research on the nature of crossmodal interactions between vision and touch has shown that
even task-irrelevant visual information can support the processing of tactile targets. In the …

Relative contributions of visual and auditory spatial representations to tactile localization

JP Noel, M Wallace - Neuropsychologia, 2016 - Elsevier
Spatial localization of touch is critically dependent upon coordinate transformation between
different reference frames, which must ultimately allow for alignment between somatotopic …

Tool use changes multisensory interactions in seconds: evidence from the crossmodal congruency task

NP Holmes, GA Calvert, C Spence - Experimental Brain Research, 2007 - Springer
Active tool use in human and non-human primates has been claimed to alter the neural
representations of multisensory peripersonal space. To date, most studies suggest that a …

Concurrent use of somatotopic and external reference frames in a tactile mislocalization task

L Tamè, A Wühle, CD Petri, F Pavani, C Braun - Brain and cognition, 2017 - Elsevier
Localizing tactile stimuli on our body requires sensory information to be represented in
multiple frames of reference along the sensory pathways. These reference frames include …
