“…During limb position tasks, individuals with PD make more errors then healthy control participants when required to identify the occurrence and/or direction of passive movements (Schneider et al, 1987) as well as demonstrating greater errors in matching static limb position, detecting limb displacements, or using the lower limbs to estimate the size of an object (Martens & Almeida, 2011;O'Suilleabhain, Bullard, & Dewey, 2001;Zia et al, 2000). Similarly, tasks involving reaching and pointing to remembered targets have found that PD patients exhibit significantly large errors when locating the original target (Keijsers, Admiraal, Cools, Bloem, & Gielen, 2005;Klockgether et al, 1995), especially when patients are unable to see their hand (Mongeon, Blanchet, & Messier, 2009) or in the complete absence of visual information (Keijsers et al, 2005). Adamovich and colleagues (2001) took these findings one step further, and showed that reaching accuracy of PD deteriorated selectively when two sources of sensory information needed to be integrated with one another (i.e., visualproprioceptive integration), which presented uncertainty as to whether spatial errors of PD arise from deficits in proprioceptive processing or from difficulty in visual-proprioceptive integration (Adamovich, Berkinblit, Hening, Sage, & Poizner, 2001).…”
