Waving goodbye to contrast: Self-generated hand movements attenuate visual sensitivity

2018-11-21

Abstract excerpt

It is well known that the human brain continuously predicts the sensory consequences of its own body movements, which typically results in sensory attenuation. Yet, the extent and exact mechanisms underlying sensory attenuation are still debated. To explore this issue, we asked participants to decide which of two visual stimuli was of higher contrast in a virtual reality situation where one of the stimuli could ap...
