Tactile stimulus predictability modulates activity in a tactile-motor cortical network
Abstract
Manipulating objects in the hand requires the continuous transformation of sensory input into appropriate motor behaviour. Using a novel vibrotactile device combined with fMRI, the cortical network associated with tactile sensorimotor transformations was investigated. Continuous tactile stimuli were delivered in a random or predictable pattern to the second digit on the right hand of all subjects. To better distinguish sensory and motor …
