摘要本研究的目的是探讨触觉和听觉刺激的空间一致性是否会影响手指或脸颊刺激的触觉粗糙度辨别。在实验中，当被动地向参与者展示研磨膜时，白噪声脉冲同时从同一侧或不同侧呈现，无论是靠近头部还是远离头部。结果表明，当白噪声与触觉刺激同一侧呈现时，尤其是从头部附近呈现时，脸颊上的辨别敏感度高于无声音或从另一侧呈现时。在手指辨别方面也观察到了类似的模式，但并不显着。手指对粗糙度的辨别也受靠近头部的声音呈现方式的影响，但在判断水平上观察到有声音和没有声音的情况下存在显著差异。因此，触觉和听觉信息之间的空间一致性选择性地调节了脸颊皮肤对粗糙度的敏感性，特别是当声源靠近头部时。
AbstractThe aim of this study is to investigate whether or not spatial congruency between tactile and auditory stimuli would influence the tactile roughness discrimination of stimuli presented to the fingers or cheeks. In the experiment, when abrasive films were passively presented to the participants, white noise bursts were simultaneously presented from the same or different side, either near or far from the head. The results showed that when white noise was presented from the same side as the tactile stimuli, especially from near the head, the discrimination sensitivity on the cheeks was higher than when sound was absent or presented from a different side. A similar pattern was observed in discrimination by the fingers but it was not significant. The roughness discrimination by the fingers was also influenced by the presentation of sound close to the head, but significant differences between conditions with and without sounds were observed at the decisional level. Thus, the spatial congruency between tactile and auditory information selectively modulated the roughness sensitivity of the skin on the cheek, especially when the sound source was close to the head.
