SUMMARY:Touch as a special spatial sense

DESCRIPTION:<p>Is touch special when it comes to our perception of spatially</p>\n<p>&nbsp\;extended objects? Certainly\, the claim that touching an object\, or estimating</p>\n<p>&nbsp\;its length by touch is more reliable or objective that seeing the</p>\n<p>&nbsp\;same object or estimating its length by vision\, is difficult to support</p>\n<p>&nbsp\;in the light of our scientific understanding of perception. Both senses</p>\n<p>&nbsp\;can be misleading\, or accurate\, depending on contexts. In this talk\, I</p>\n<p>&nbsp\;suggest that the distinctive character of touch still shows at a</p>\n<p>&nbsp\;subjective level\, as we are more certain of what we touch than what</p>\n<p>&nbsp\;we see. I will argue also that this distinction regards spatial</p>\n<p>&nbsp\;estimates\, and not temporal ones.</p>
