Extending peripersonal space representation without tool-use: evidence from a combined behavioural-computational approach

Stimuli from different sensory modalities occurring on or close to the body are integrated in a multisensory representation of the space surrounding the body, i.e. peripersonal space (PPS). PPS dynamically modifies depending on experience, e.g. it extends after using a tool to reach far objects. How...
