How deep is the linkage between action and perception? Much is known about how object perception impacts on action performance, much less about how action performance affects object perception. Does action performance affect perceptual judgment on object features such as shape and orientation? Answering these questions was the aim of the present study. Participants were asked to reach and grasp a handled mug without any visual feedback before judging whether a visually presented mug was handled or not. Performing repeatedly a grasping action resulted in a perceptual categorization aftereffect as measured by a slowdown in the judgment on a handled mug. We suggest that what people are doing may impact on their perceptual judgments on the surrounding things.

Abstract
How deep is the linkage between action and perception? Much is known about how object perception impacts on action performance, much less about how action performance affects object perception. Does action performance affect perceptual judgment on object features such as shape and orientation? Answering these questions was the aim of the present study. Participants were asked to reach and grasp a handled mug without any visual feedback before judging whether a visually presented mug was handled or not. Performing repeatedly a grasping action resulted in a perceptual categorization aftereffect as measured by a slowdown in the judgment on a handled mug. We suggest that what people are doing may impact on their perceptual judgments on the surrounding things.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
