It has become accepted in the neuroscience community that perception and performance
are quintessentially multisensory by nature. Using the full palette of modern brain imaging …

Prehension, the capacity to reach and grasp, is the key behavior that allows humans to
change their environment. It continues to serve as a remarkable experimental test case for …

Ideomotor accounts of human action control posit that human agents represent actions in
terms of their perceivable consequences; selecting, planning, and initiating a voluntary …

It is well established that during the preparation and execution of goal-directed movements,
perceptual processing is biased towards the goal. Most of the previous work on the relation …

Auditory and tactile stimuli are integrated within a limited space around the body to form an
auditory peripersonal space (APPS). Here we investigate whether the APPS representation …

Here we offer a thorough review of the empirical literature on the conditions under which an
object, such as a tool or a prosthetic (whether real or virtual), can be experienced as being in …

Transformations of hand movements by tools such as levers or electronic input devices can
invoke performance costs compared to untransformed movements. This study investigated …

Abstract Jans, Peters, and De Weerd (2010) examined the studies demonstrating that spatial
attention can be split across 2 noncontiguous target locations. They find all these studies to …

Tactile stimulus location is automatically transformed from somatotopic into external spatial
coordinates, rendering information about the location of touch in three-dimensional space …

Using tools, such as simple levers, makes specific demands on the motor system. Two
related performance decrements have been reported: The costs that arise when required …
