Being moved by the self and others: influence of empathy on self-motion perception. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND: The observation of conspecifics influences our bodily perceptions and actions: Contagious yawning, contagious itching, or empathy for pain, are all examples of mechanisms based on resonance between our own body and others.

Self-motion and the perception of stationary objects [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2001
One of the ways that we perceive shape is through seeing motion. Visual motion may be actively generated (for example, in locomotion), or passively observed. In the study of the perception of three-dimensional structure from motion, the non-moving, passive observer in an environment of moving rigid objects has been used as a substitute for an active ...

Self-Motion Versus Environmental-Motion Perception Following Rotational Vestibular Stimulation and Factors Modifying Them

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2019
Motion perception following rotational vestibular stimulation is described either as a self-motion or as an environmental-motion. The purpose of the present study was to establish frequency of occurrence of both sensations in healthy humans; what other ...

Noise and vestibular perception of passive self-motion

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2023
Noise defined as random disturbances is ubiquitous in both the external environment and the nervous system. Depending on the context, noise can degrade or improve information processing and performance.

Eye Movements in Darkness Modulate Self-Motion Perception. [PDF]

open access: yeseNeuro, 2017
AbstractDuring self-motion, humans typically move the eyes to maintain fixation on the stationary environment around them. These eye movements could in principle be used to estimate self-motion, but their impact on perception is unknown. We had participants judge self-motion during different eye-movement conditions in the absence of full-field optic ...

Augmentation of self-motion perception with synthetic auditory cues [PDF]

open access: yesiScience
Summary: This study tested whether a synthetic auditory cue, designed to encode translational self-motion, can augment vestibular perception. Twenty adults sat on a motion platform and judged whether forward translations were to the left or right of ...

How imagery changes self-motion perception.

open access: yesNeuroscience, 2015
Imagery and perception are thought to be tightly linked, however, little is known about the interaction between imagery and the vestibular sense, in particular, self-motion perception. In this study, the observers were seated in the dark on a motorized chair that could rotate either to the right or to the left. Prior to the physical rotation, observers

Visual Perception of Object Motion during Self-Motion Does Not Depend on Heading Perception [PDF]

open access: yesi-Perception, 2012
Recent studies have suggested that the visual system subtracts the optic flow pattern experienced during self-motion from the projected retinal motion of the environment to recover object motion, a phenomenon called “flow parsing”.

Directionless Vection: A New Illusory Self-Motion Perception

open access: yesi-Perception, 2012
We report a new visual illusion, “directionless vection.” When expanding and contracting optic flows are simultaneously presented in the same depth plane, observers can perceive illusory self-motion (vection) without direction.

The perception of linear self-motion [PDF]

open access: yesSPIE Proceedings, 2005
VR lends itself to the study of intersensory calibration in self-motion perception. However, proper calibration of visual and locomotor self-motion in VR is made complicated by the compression of perceived distance and by unfamiliar modes of locomotion.
