“…All PSEs were reliably less than 0 (indicating significant mediolaterally biased anisotropies; all p's < .04, all t's > 2.23). This replicates Longo and Haggard's (2011) finding that tactile distances are perceived as longer across than along the hand, and show that this anisotropy extends down the forearm (see also Green, 1982 Consistent with previous findings , there was also a Surface effect, F (1, 25) = 9.56, p < .01, η p 2 = .28, with larger anisotropies on the dorsal than the ventral surface. Finally, there was a significant interaction between Body Part and Surface, F (2,50) = 4.08, p < .05, η p 2 = .14.…”
