“Touched” by Light: Event-Related Potentials (ERPs) to Visuo-Haptic Stimuli in Peri-Personal Space

Abstract: Parietal neuronal populations have been found which respond bimodally to visual and somatosensory input regarding one’s own limbs or even perceived haptic input of a false limb (Graziano et al., 2000). Further, neuronal populations have been observed which respond preferentially to visual stimuli presented in spatial congruence with our hands (Graziano 1999). In this study, we examined event-related potentials (ERPs) elicited by laser dots projected onto or above participants’ index and middle fingers during a… Show more

“…Electrode clusters and latency windows were chosen based on those reported in visuo-tactile multisensory integration studies (Kennett et al, 2001; Simon-Dack et al, 2009), visual attention studies (Eimer, 1994), and from an examination of where deflections were most prominent in the grand average waveforms sites from the current data set: P1 (80–110 ms) for lateral parietal-occipital sites (O1/P1/P3; O2/P2/P4), central Nd1 (120–190 ms) for midline parietal-occipital sites (Pz/POz), P3 (350–450 ms,) and a late positivity referred to as the P3Termination or P3T (450–650 ms) for lateral central-parietal sites (FC1/C1/CP1; FC2/C2/CP2). Mean amplitude values were calculated within specified time windows.…”

“…For instance, the Nd1 shows greater amplitudes in a cross-modal cuing task when visual and tactile stimuli were presented than when unimodal stimuli were presented. Likewise, a similar component was found to be enhanced when visual stimuli were presented on the hand for implicit “touch” as opposed to near the hand (Simon-Dack et al, 2009). Finally, the P3 (300–500 ms) reflects discrimination of stimulus categories at a more abstract, task or motivationally relevant level.…”

“…Multisensory interactions appear to become spatially sensitive only 100-200 msec poststimulus, both for effects of hemispace (Gondan, Niederhaus, Rösler, & Röder, 2005;Teder-Sälejärvi, Di Russo, McDonald, & Hillyard, 2005;Eimer & Driver, 2000) and of location in peripersonal space (Sambo & Forster, 2009;Simon-Dack et al, 2009). In contrast, the present results, showing extremely precise spatial congruence effects in personal space, show maximal differences much later.…”

“…This enhancement effect loses its spatial specificity after TMS of posterior parietal cortex, providing additional evidence that posterior parietal regions are involved in visuotactile integration. Larger N1 ERP components, indicative of increased processing in occipital brain regions, have been generated for visual stimuli presented on versus above the hands (Simon-Dack, et al, 2009). These studies provide evidence that posterior parietal regions involved in representing touch and the body interact with visual areas, resulting in changes in visual perception.…”
