Research on multisensory integration during natural tasks has revealed how chemical senses contribute to plan and control movements. An aspect which has yet to be investigated regards whether the motor representations evoked by chemosensory stimuli, …
Previous research on multisensory integration during goal-directed natural actions reported that visual, proprioceptive, auditory and orthonasal olfactory stimulation has the ability to influence motor control. In this study, we used kinematics to …
The present study assessed odour threshold, discrimination and identifi cation in relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS) patients. We administered the Sniffi n’ Sticks Extended Test (Burghart Messtechnik GmbH, Wedel, Germany) to 50 RRMS female patients and to …
This study used kinematics to investigate the integration between vision and olfaction during grasping movements. Participants were requested to smell an odorant and then grasp an object presented in central vision. The results indicate that if the …
Despite its popularity, the construct of biological motion (BM) and its putative anomalies in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are not completely clarified. Here, we propose a new model describing distinct levels of BM processing, and we present a …
