Peripersonal space in the front, rear, left and right directions for audio-tactile multisensory integration

Abstract: Peripersonal space (PPS) is important for humans to perform body–environment interactions. However, many previous studies only focused on the specific direction of the PPS, such as the front space, despite suggesting that there were PPSs in all directions. We aimed to measure and compare the peri-trunk PPS in four directions (front, rear, left, and right). To measure the PPS, we used a tactile and an audio stimulus because auditory information is available at any time in all directions. We used the approaching… Show more

“…Forward walking is highly automatized in contrast to backward walking. 60 Thus, backward walking is more cognitively demanding and requires more attentional resources as well as executive control. 61 This has already been shown for other populations such as elderly and people with neurodegenerative diseases.…”

“…This phenomenon exemplifies the importance of interpersonal space (IPS) and peripersonal space (PPS) in which humans can perform body–environment interactions [ 30 ]. Although the dimensions of IPS and PPS include all directions, previous studies have only focused on a specific distance, i.e., the distance from the front of the person [ 31 ]. When it comes to understanding infectious diseases, the front-directed PPS is essential since most diseases, including SARS-CoV-2, are transmitted via the front parts of the human body.…”
