Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Have a normal or corrected to normal vision, be right-handed, be between the ages of 18 and 40.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Have history of neurological disorder, have tattoos (i.e. tattoos containing metals and compounds into the skin, and there*s no guarantee that those would be safe under fMRI conditions), piercing or other metal implants in the body (e.g. peacemaker)

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The main parameter will be the difference in Blood Oxygenation Level Dependent (BOLD) signal changes in the ventral and dorsal brain areas in response to the four kinds of spatial representations (egocentric coordinate; egocentric categorical; allocentric coordinate; allocentric categorical) used by participants to indicate the target figure (visuo-perceptual condition) and that will guide participants* arm movement to touch with the index finger the position occupied by one of the figures (visuo-motor condition).
