Calibration to tool use during visually-guided reaching.

TLDR
Both groups showed calibration appropriate to the type of tool that they used during the calibration phase, and this calibration carried over to reaches made in the post-test, which inform discussions on the proposed embodied action schema and have applications to virtual reality, specifically the development of self-avatars.

Investigating the Effects of Anthropomorphic Fidelity of Self-Avatars on Near Field Depth Perception in Immersive Virtual Environments

TL;DR: The results suggest that reach estimations become more accurate as the visual fidelity of the avatar increases, with accuracy for high fidelity avatars approaching real-world performance as compared to low-fidelity and end-effector conditions.

Examining the effects of altered avatars on perception-action in virtual reality.

TL;DR: Results showed that calibration to altered dimensions of avatars is possible after receiving feedback while acting with the altered avatar, and this work studied the effect that an altered avatar had on the perception of one’s action capabilities.

Effects of anthropomorphic fidelity of self-avatars on reach boundary estimation in immersive virtual environments

TL;DR: Results indicate that all three VR viewing conditions were significantly different from real world in regards to correctly judging the reachability of the target, but only the "no avatar" condition had a non-trivial difference with real world condition.

Empirically Evaluating the Effects of Perceptual Information Channels on the Size Perception of Tangibles in Near-Field Virtual Reality

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conducted a between-subjects study evaluating the accuracy of size perception across three experimental conditions (vision-only, haptics-only and vision-only) and found that participants consistently over-estimated the size of the dials regardless of the type of perceptual information.

Tool Use Modulates Somatosensory Cortical Processing in Humans

TL;DR: It is suggested that tool use modulates relatively late stages of somatosensory processing outside primary somatoensory cortex, which is consistent with what has been observed in tool-trained monkeys and suggests that the mechanisms underlying tool-induced plasticity have been preserved across primate evolution.

The Ecological Approach to Visual Perception

TL;DR: The relationship between Stimulation and Stimulus Information for visual perception is discussed in detail in this article, where the authors also present experimental evidence for direct perception of motion in the world and movement of the self.

Multilevel Analysis: Techniques and Applications

Joop J. Hox
TL;DR: This work focuses on the development of a single model for Multilevel Regression, which has been shown to provide good predictive power in relation to both the number of cases and the severity of the cases.

Regression Models for Categorical Dependent Variables Using Stata

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a brief tutorial for estimating, testing, fit, and interpretation of ordinal and binary outcomes using Stata. But they do not discuss how to apply these models to other estimation commands, such as post-estimation analysis.

The visual brain in action

TL;DR: This chapter discusses vision from a biological point of view, attention, consciousness, and the coordination of behaviour in primate visual cortex, and discusses dissociations between perception and action in normal subjects.

Regression Models for Categorical Dependent Variables Using Stata, Second Edition

TL;DR: This book discusses models for ordinal and nominal independent variables, and describes the development of models for Nominal Outcomes with Case-Specific Data and its use in Stata.
