Abstract(in English) In the present study, we investigated the effects of auditory information on tactile roughness perception. In Experiment I, we examined the effects of low- and middle-frequency manipulation of touch-produced sounds on tactile roughness estimations. In Experiment II, the effects of auditory white noise on tactile roughness estimations were examined. The results of these experiments showed that both the touch-produced sounds and white noise modulated tactile roughness perception. The auditory stimuli used in this study reduced the exponents of tactile roughness magnitude functions. In addition, the selective effect of the white noise on tactile roughness estimation in Experiment II suggests that tactile information processing of roughness and auditory information processing of broad band noise may have a common internal processing basis.
