We investigated the effect of adapting speed, duration, and distance on the frequency of occurrence, duration, and vividness of the tactile motion aftereffect (tMAE). Using a cylindrical drum with a patterned surface we adapted the glabrous surface of the right hand at two speeds (14 and 28 cm/s) and three durations (60, 120, and 240 s). Distance was explored in the interaction of adapting speed and duration. The results showed that the frequency of occurrence, duration, and vividness of the tMAE increased with adapting speed. There was also a positive relationship between adapting duration and the frequency of occurrence, but not the duration or vividness, of the illusion. Distance was only a factor when it came to the duration of the tMAE. Taken together, these results show the importance of adapting parameters, particularly speed, on the tMAE.
我们研究了适应速度、时长和距离对触觉运动后效（tMAE）的出现频率、持续时间和生动程度的影响。我们使用一个表面有图案的圆柱形鼓，以两种速度（14厘米/秒和28厘米/秒）和三种时长（60秒、120秒和240秒）对右手的无毛皮肤进行适应。在适应速度和时长的相互作用中探讨了距离因素。结果表明，tMAE的出现频率、持续时间和生动程度随适应速度的增加而增加。适应时长与错觉的出现频率之间也存在正相关关系，但与错觉的持续时间或生动程度无关。距离仅在tMAE的持续时间方面是一个影响因素。综上所述，这些结果表明了适应参数，尤其是速度，对tMAE的重要性。
