Predictions of bimanual self-touch determine the temporal tuning of somatosensory perception

open access: yesiScience
Summary: We easily distinguish self-touch from the touch of others. This distinction is suggested to arise because the brain predicts the somatosensory consequences of voluntary movements using an efference copy and attenuates the predicted self-touch ...

Tactile Hypersensitivity and “Overwhelming Subjectivity” in the Touch Experience of People With Congenital Deafblindness: Implications for a Touch-Based Pedagogy

open access: yesFrontiers in Education, 2020
Tactile hypersensitivity, sometimes referred to as tactile aversion, shyness or defensiveness, is a frequently cited challenge for support partners and educators in working with people with congenital deafblindness (CDB). Touch is the most fundamental of

Independent representations of self-motion and object location in barrel cortex output.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2020
During active tactile exploration, the dynamic patterns of touch are transduced to electrical signals and transformed by the brain into a mental representation of the object under investigation. This transformation from sensation to perception is thought
