Effects of Changing Object Size During Prehension

Abstract: The authors tested how fast the grasp component of prehension was able to adjust to a sudden change in object size. Participants grasped an object, the size of which could suddenly increase. Whereas previous researchers usually applied perturbations through a change in illumination at movement onset, the present perturbations involved a change in the object's physical size at 1 of 4 moments during the movement (125, 200, 275, and 350 ms after movement onset). The results showed that grasp adjustments came in m… Show more

“…The consequence of using such a method is that if responses are less vigorous, they will be considered to have occurred later in time. Other authors have also used a fixed threshold to analyse response latencies to perturbations in a grasping task with objects of different sizes and found a similar time-dependent latency (Hesse and Franz 2009; van de Kamp et al 2009). A fixed threshold would not be a problem if corrections were performed in accordance with strategy 2, because then the strength of the correction would always be the same.…”

“…Paulignan, Mackenzie, Marteniuk, and Jeannerod (1991), for example, demonstrated quick reactions to online location perturbations. Others have shown that individuals can also compensate well for online size perturbations (Castiello, Bennett, & Chambers, 1998; Castiello, Bennett, & Stelmach, 1993; Glover, Miall, & Rushworth, 2005; Paulignan, Jeannerod, Mackenzie, & Marteniuk, 1991; van de Kamp, Bongers, & Zaal, 2009) until quite late in the course of a movement (Hesse & Franz, 2009). Likewise, an initially inappropriate hand orientation can be corrected to match target orientation in late phases of a grasping movement (Gosselin-Kessiby, Messier, & Kalaska, 2008), and perturbations of target orientation are compensated for quickly (Desmurget & Prablanc, 1997; Desmurget et al, 1996, 1995).…”

“…The function of control is to quickly process motorvisual feedback signals to launch rapid online corrections for potential spatial movement–goal mismatches. Thus, processing speed is an important aspect of control (see, e.g., van de Kamp et al, 2009) that demands attentional focus but practically precludes the integration of any substantial amount of non-essential contextual information (except focused and spatial information).…”

“…Control constantly compares predictions based on the actual state of the movement with incoming sensory information, in order to minimize mismatch between movement goal and prospective course of the movement (Wolpert et al, 1998; Wolpert and Ghahramani, 2000; Bubic et al, 2010). Movement control works at high speed and can rapidly correct for movement disturbances and perturbations in target size, location, or orientation (Prablanc and Pélisson, 1990; Gosselin-Kessiby et al, 2008; Hesse and Franz, 2009; van de Kamp et al, 2009). …”
