Functional and dynamic properties of visual peripersonal space

Làdavas, Elisabetta·2002·Trends in Cognitive Sciences

Abstract

In order to code visual peripersonal space, human and non-human primates need an integrated system that controls both visual and tactile inputs within peripersonal space around the face and the hand, based on visual experience of body parts. The existence of such a system in humans has been demonstrated, and there is evidence showing that visual peripersonal space relating to the hand has important dynamic properties, for example, it can be expanded and contracted depending on tool use. There is also evidence for a high degree of functional similarity between the characteristics of the visual peripersonal space in humans and in monkeys.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Body-related signals are integrated with information pertaining to external stimuli occurring in the space near the body to constitute a multisensory representation of peripersonal space.

    “An extensive literature has shown that body-related signals are integrated with information pertaining to external stimuli occurring in the space near the body to constitute a multisensory representation of peripersonal space (Graziano & Cooke, 2006;Ladavas, 2002;Rizzolatti et al., 1997).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
