This report describes basic studies on tactile perception and communication. In Section II are described experimental sessions in which words, sentences, and paragraphs were transmitted to subjects by a tactile display. Sessions in which a specially designed tactile alphabet was developed are discussed in Section III. Factors such as learnability, edge effects, letter packing, and number of fingers used are considered. Tactually naive subjects were able to identify these letters correctly at a rate of two random letters a second after 25 hours of practice. In Section IV, studies of two-dimensional compensatory tracking with a continuous visual display, a discrete visual display, and a discrete tactile display are described. Finally, in Section VI three series of quantitative studies are reported. The first is a study of the effect of deliberate stimulus pattern 'jitter' on performance. Next, a study concerned with methods of tactually transmitting the magnitude of a single analog parameter is described. Third, the theory of signal detection is applied to a study of the human observer's ability to discriminate among different loci of tactual stimulation.

This book explains the mechanisms underpinning the tactile perception of electrovibration and lays the groundwork for delivering realistic haptic feedback on touchscreens via this method. Effective utilization of electrovibration can only be accomplished by simultaneously investigating both the physical and perceptual aspects of the finger-touchscreen interaction. Towards this goal, present work blends the available knowledge on electromechanical properties of the human finger and human tactile perception with the results of new psychophysical experiments and physical measurements. By following such an approach that combines both theoretical and experimental information, the study proposes new methods and insights on generating realistic haptic effects, such as textures and edges on these displays. Besides, state-of-the-art research on the field is reviewed, and future work is discussed. The presented interdisciplinary methods and insights can interest students, broad communities of haptics, neuroscience, engineering, physics, and cognitive sciences, as well as user-interaction experts and product designers from the industry.

Results of five studies on tactual perception, involving airjet stimulators and a computer-controlled facility, are given. In the first study, alphabetic shapes were presented on an 8x6 airjet array that was translated in a small circle. The increased performance with movement suggests a hypothetical model that qualitatively accounts for the display motion effects. The second study involved pairs of alphabetic shapes presented in rapid succession at the same anatomical location. The interaction effects were: increased letter reversals for short interstimulus intervals; more first-response errors for short-stimulus onset intervals and more second-response errors for long-stimulus intervals; a crossover in first- and second-response error rates of 100 to 200 msec after onset of the first stimulus. In the third study, point airjet stimuli were applied simultaneously to the 24 interjoint regions of the fingers. The results suggest a tactile short-term memory with greater capacity than immediate-memory span but with 0.8-sec decay rate. In the fourth study, visual and tactile stimuli giving equal mean simple reaction times were used. With increased response alternatives, mean visual times increased less than mean tactile times; but with simultaneous presentation of both stimulus types, mean reaction time was much shorter than with either type alone.

Designed to make research on touch understandable to those not specifically involved in tactile research, this book provides broad coverage of the field. It includes material on sensory physiology and psychophysics, thermal sensibility, pain, pattern participation, sensory aids, and tactile perception in blind people. While the volume is important for researchers in the area of touch, it should also prove valuable to a broad audience of experimental and educational psychologists, and health professionals. The book should also be of interest to scientists in perception, cognition, and cognitive science, and can be used as a supplementary reader for courses in sensation and perception.

Originally published in 1981, Workshops in Perception is designed to enable students to devise their own experiments in sensory processes or perception. The thirty workshops include over a hundred different possible student projects covering the full range of the senses and interactions among them. The topics range from simple perimetry to the perception of language and social situations. In addition to more traditional topics such as illusions, adaptation and after-effects, they include lifespan perceptual development, musical illusions, and even a consumer-oriented study of road atlases. Each of the ten major sections has a general introduction to the topic with suggestions for reading. Each workshop has a more specific introduction to its topic, and an experiment outlined. A typical outline will suggest more independent variables than a student can handle, and it is up to the student to select the variables he considers important and to choose the appropriate levels of the variables. Although many suggestions are made regarding the actual running of each workshop, deciding precisely how to carry out the experiment is left up to the student. Pilot work and consultation with the tutor is encouraged. Suggestions for the form of the analysis are made, but again the details are left to the student. Several alternatives to the main workshop are outlined briefly, and these are suited to the more adventurous or advanced student. Thus the book is suited to students with a wide range of ability.

For the first time, David Katz's classic monograph The World of Touch has been translated into English. Regarded as one of the premiere experimental psychologists, Katz vigorously opposed the atomism and "tachistoscopic" mentality typical of the sensory psychology of his day. In The World of Touch, Katz sought to dispel the invidious distinction between the supposedly higher (e.g., vision, audition) and lower (e.g., touch) senses. To help touch regain its original prominence in the field, Katz demonstrated, through very simple, yet creative experiments, how fascinating the abilities of touch are, and how valuable the tactual stimulus can be in specifying objects, surfaces, substances, and events. In addition, Katz emphasized the importance of higher-order invariants in the perception of objects, and the holistic quality of perception in time as well as space.
