FMRI reveals a dissociation between grasping and perceiving the size of real 3D objects. by Cristiana Cavina-Pratesi, Melvyn A Goodale, Jody C Culham

“…<h4>Methodology/principal findings</h4>Subjects were presented with the same real graspable 3D objects and were required to perform a number of different tasks: grasping, reaching, size discrimination, pattern discrimination or passive viewing. As in prior studies, the anterior intraparietal area (AIP) in the dorsal stream was more active during grasping, when object size was relevant for planning the grasp, than during reaching, when object properties were irrelevant for movement planning (grasping>reaching). …”
