Tactile discrimination of shape: responses of slowly adapting mechanoreceptor afferents to a step stroked across the monkey fingerpad

The representation of shape in the responses of slowly adapting mechanoreceptive afferent fibers (SAs) in monkeys was investigated. A series of flat plates was used, each having an increase in thickness (a step) in the middle so that one-half of the plate was thicker than the other. The cross-sectio...
