Hermosillo et al. (J Neurosci 31: 10019-10022, 2011) have suggested that action planning of hand movements impacts decisions about the temporal order judgments regarding vibrotactile stimulation of the hands. Specifically, these authors reported that the crossed-hand effect, a confusion about which hand is which when held in a crossed posture, gradually reverses some 320 ms before the arms begin to move from an uncrossed to a crossed posture or vice versa, such that the crossed-hand is reversed at the time of movement onset in anticipation of the movement's end position. However, to date, no other study has attempted to replicate this dynamic crossed-hand effect. Therefore, in the present study, we conducted four experiments to revisit the question whether preparing uncrossed-to-crossed or crossed-to-uncrossed movements affects the temporo-spatial perception of tactile stimulation of the hands. We used a temporal order judgement (TOJ) task at different time stages during action planning to test whether TOJs are more difficult with crossed than uncrossed hands ("static crossed-hand effect") and, crucially, whether planning to cross or uncross the hands shows the opposite pattern of difficulties ("dynamic crossed-hand effect"). As expected, our results confirmed the static crossed-hand effect. However, the dynamic crossed-hand effect could not be replicated. In addition, we observed that participants delayed their movements with late somatosensory stimulation from the TOJ task, even when the stimulations were meaningless, suggesting that the TOJ task resulted in cross-modal distractions. Whereas the current findings are not inconsistent with a contribution of motor signals to posture perception, they cast doubt on observations that motor signals impact state estimates well before movement onset.
