Weber's law in tactile grasping and manual estimation: feedback-dependent evidence for functionally distinct processing streams.

abstract：:The nature of object-centred (allocentric) neglect and the possibility of dissociating it from egocentric (subject-centred) forms of neglect are controversial. Originally, allocentric neglect was described by Gainotti, D'Erme, Monteleone & Silveri (1986) and Gainotti, Messerli, & Tissot (1972) in patients who reproduc...
