A miniature hair clip set-up presented to the first author gave inspiration for this study. After a number of studies investigating what is haptically perceived as parallel on horizontal, frontoparallel or midsagittal planes, the present study focusses on what is felt as parallel behind your head. The results show convincingly that also in this condition physically parallel is not the same as haptically parallel. Moreover, the deviations are large, idiosyncratic and in a direction predicted by assuming a biasing influence of an egocentric reference frame.
送给第一作者的一个微型发夹装置为这项研究带来了灵感。在进行了一系列关于在水平、额平行或正中矢状面上触觉感知为平行的研究之后,本研究聚焦于在头部后方所感觉到的平行情况。结果令人信服地表明,在这种情况下,物理上的平行与触觉上的平行并不相同。此外,偏差很大、因人而异,并且其方向是通过假设以自我为中心的参考系的偏差影响来预测的。
