| pubmed-article:95974 | pubmed:abstractText | The findings obtained in neurophysiological and psychophysical investigations using tactile stimuli that move at constant velocity across the skin are reviewed. For certain neurons in the postcentral gyrus of the cerebral cortex (S-I) of macaque monkeys, direction of stimulus motion is a "trigger feature"" i.e., moving tactile stimuli evoke vigorous discharge activity in these neurons only if the stimuli are moved in a particular direction across the receptive field. This directional selectivity is maximal when stimulus velocity is between 5 and 50 cm/sec, and falls off rapidly at lower or higher velocities. The capacity for human subjects to correctly identify the direction of stimulus motion on the skin exhibits a similar dependence on stimulus velocity. The similar effects of velocity on neural and psychophysical measures of directional sensitivity support the idea that direction of stimulus motion on the skin can only be recognized if the moving stimulus optimally activates the group of S-I neurons for which that directions of simulus motion is the trigger feature. | lld:pubmed |
