Studies on pseudo-force feedback have reported that tactile stimuli such as skin stretch and pressure can substitute force sensation. This effect has enabled the design of a compact haptic device. However, little is known about the effect of applying pressure to the palm in terms of force substitution and augmentation, especially regarding how active and passive pressure stimuli differ. This article examines the pseudo-force effect of pressure stimuli to the palm, focusing on how it is perceived when it is applied together with a force stimulus. The method of adjustment was utilized, by which participants voluntarily moved their hands to adjust the pressure and force stimuli. The participants did this such that they felt a force equivalent to that of the reference applied to the other hand, which induced only a force stimulus. The results showed that the force sensation was significantly changed by the pressure stimulus to the palm, showing the effect of force substitution and augmentation. Furthermore, we found that there is no significant difference between the active and passive stimuli.
