摘要

The capacity of 20 healthy adult subjects for detecting differences in the amplitude of two simultaneously delivered 25 Hz vibrotactile stimuli was assessed both in the absence and presence of prior exposure to different conditions of adapting stimulation. Results obtained from this study demonstrate that increasing durations of adapting stimulation at one of the two skin sites, in the range of 0.2 to 2.0 s, lead to a systematic and progressive decrease in a subject's ability to accurately discriminate between the two different amplitudes. Delivery of adapting stimuli to both of the sites of skin stimulation prior to simultaneous delivery of the test and standard stimuli, however, leads to an improvement in amplitude discrimination performance-a finding which is consistent with prior published psychophysical studies that demonstrate improvements in discriminatory capacity with much longer durations of adaptation. Striking parallels between the results obtained in this study and those reported in a prior study of the effects of vibrotactile adaptation on the optical response of squirrel monkey contralateral SI cortex to vibrotactile stimulation [Simons, S.B., Chiu, J., Favorov, O.V., Whitsel, B.L., Tommerdahl, M., 2007. Duration-dependent response of SI to vibrotactile stimulation in squirrel monkey. J Neurophysiol. 97, 2121-9, Simons, S.B., Tannan, V., Chiu, J., Favorov, O.V., Whitsel, B.L., Tommerdahl, M., 2005. Amplitude-dependency of response of SI cortex to flutter stimulation. BMC Neurosci. 6, 43] suggest that the perceptual effects detected in this study could be attributable to adaptation-induced alterations of SI response.
