Tactile suppression in goal-directed movement
Sharing numerous characteristics with suppression in the other senses, tactile suppression
is a reliable phenomenon that accompanies movement. By investigating the simplest of …

[HTML][HTML] S1 represents multisensory contexts and somatotopic locations within and outside the bounds of the cortical homunculus
Recent literature suggests that tactile events are represented in the primary somatosensory
cortex (S1) beyond its long-established topography; in addition, the extent to which S1 is …

Dynamic temporal modulation of somatosensory processing during reaching
D Voudouris, K Fiehler - Scientific Reports, 2021 - nature.com
Sensorimotor control of human action integrates feedforward policies that predict future body
states with online sensory feedback. These predictions lead to a suppression of the …

[HTML][HTML] Structural changes in brain morphology induced by brief periods of repetitive sensory stimulation
There is a growing interest in identifying the neural mechanisms by which the human brain
allows for improving performance. Tactile perceptual measurements, eg two-point …

The influence of afferent input on somatosensory suppression during grasping
The processing of somatosensory information is hampered on a moving limb. This
suppression has been widely attributed to sensorimotor predictions that suppress the …

Auditory-induced body distortions in children and adults
E Nava, A Tajadura-Jiménez - Scientific reports, 2020 - nature.com
Recent studies have shown that body-representations can be altered by dynamic changes
in sound. In the so-called “auditory Pinocchio illusion” participants feel their finger to be …

Predicted reach consequences drive time course of tactile suppression
Sensitivity to touch is reduced during movement; this tactile suppression is likely the result of
a mechanism that suppresses self-generated movement consequences. We sought to …

Predictions of bimanual self-touch determine the temporal tuning of somatosensory perception
We easily distinguish self-touch from the touch of others. This distinction is suggested to
arise because the brain predicts the somatosensory consequences of voluntary movements …

How visuomotor predictability and task demands affect tactile sensitivity on a moving limb during object interaction in a virtual environment
Tactile sensitivity is decreased on a moving limb compared to the same static limb. This
tactile suppression likely reflects an interplay between sensorimotor predictions and sensory …

Distinct role of central predictive mechanisms in tactile suppression
Tactile sensitivity on a limb is reduced during movement. This tactile suppression results
presumably from central predictive mechanisms that downregulate sensations caused …
