InXuence of galvanic vestibular stimulation on egocentric and object-based mental transformations
The vestibular system analyses angular and linear accelerations of the head that are important information for perceiving the location of one’s own body in space. Vestibular stimulation and in particular galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) that allow a systematic modiWcation of vestibular signals has so far mainly been used to investigate vestibular inXuence on sensori-motor integration in ey...
متن کاملSomatosensory influence on postural response to galvanic vestibular stimulation.
We investigated how postural responses to galvanic vestibular stimulation were affected by standing on a translating support surface and by somatosensory loss due to diabetic neuropathy. We tested the hypothesis that an unstable surface and somatosensory loss can result in an increase of vestibulospinal sensitivity. Bipolar galvanic vestibular stimulation was applied to subjects who were standi...
متن کاملModulation of Memory by Vestibular Lesions and Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation
For decades it has been speculated that there is a close association between the vestibular system and spatial memories constructed by areas of the brain such as the hippocampus. While many animal studies have been conducted which support this relationship, only in the last 10 years have detailed quantitative studies been carried out in patients with vestibular disorders. The majority of these ...
متن کاملFunctional MRI of galvanic vestibular stimulation.
The cortical processing of vestibular information is not hierarchically organized as the processing of signals in the visual and auditory modalities. Anatomic and electrophysiological studies in the monkey revealed the existence of multiple interconnected areas in which vestibular signals converge with visual and/or somatosensory inputs. Although recent functional imaging studies using caloric ...
متن کاملErratum: Developmental Changes in Mental Rotation: A Dissociation Between Object-Based and Egocentric Transformations
The present study was conducted to investigate developmental changes of mental rotation performance. We compared children, adults, and older adults regarding their performance in object-based and egocentric transformations. Both children and older adults showed higher overall reaction times compared to adults. Results were interpreted against the background of impaired working memory capacity i...
