Visual interaction with ambiguous edges : perception, pointing and prehension

The current investigation examined perceptual and movement responses to evaluate the possibility of unique representations guiding the outcomes of perceptual and motor-based responses. In two experiments the quality of visual luminance edges was manipulated and the outcomes of three visually based t...

The current investigation examined perceptual and movement responses to evaluate the possibility of unique representations guiding the outcomes of perceptual and motor-based responses. In two experiments the quality of visual luminance edges was manipulated and the outcomes of three visually based tasks, namely perceptual estimates, pointing, and prehensile/grasping movements were measured. The findings provided evidence for the use of unique representations of stimulus features that are task specific. 2012-01-19T17:46:14Z 2012-01-19T17:46:14Z 2012 2012-01-19 2012-05 Electronic Thesis or Dissertation http://hdl.handle.net/2429/40166 eng University of British Columbia
