Simulation perceptive et degré d’habileté manuelle : des droitiers reconnaissent plus vite un objet saisissable de la main droite
No full textMentally simulated grasping movement
This paper deals with the kind of manual movement subjects mentally simulate when solving a left-right judgment task that requires rotating images of door-handles. Nineteen subjects were asked to judge the laterality of rotated handles drawings presented successively to the right and left visual hemifields by clicking on a mouse using either their right or left hand. The results showed that: 1) the performances varied with the rotation angle at which the stimulus was presented, indicating that the subjects mentally simulated a rotation process; 2) Handles requiring a wrist pronation to be grasped were recognized quicker than handles requiring a wrist supination to be grasped. 3) Right handles were recognized quicker than left handles whatever the rotation angle of the stimulus. This last finding suggests that not only mental rotation but more generally visual perception relies on the mental simulation of a grasping movement.Cet article traite de la simulation mentale d’un mouvement de saisie manuelle mise en oeuvre lors d’une tâche de jugement de latéralité de dessins représentant des poignées de porte plus ou moins inclinées. Dix-neuf étudiants droitiers doivent reconnaître la latéralité des poignées présentées aléatoirement dans les champs visuels gauche et droit en cliquant sur la souris de la main droite ou de la main gauche. Le temps de réponse et le nombre de réponses correctes sont enregistrés. Le principal résultat montre que les temps de réponses associés à une poignée droite sont plus courts que ceux associés à une poignée gauche et ce, quelle que soit l’orientation du stimulus (habituelle ou inhabituelle). Ces données suggèrent que la simulation d’un mouvement de saisie manuelle peut accompagner non seulement le processus de rotation mentale mais aussi plus généralement la perception visuelle.Celse Carole, Olivier Gérard, Faure Sylvane.
