Fig. 2 — Results from Experiment 1: (a) ratio of perceived arm length to actual arm length as a function of handedness and (b) correlation between relative-strength ratio and symmetry in perceived arm length. In (a), data are plotted separately for the left and right arm. Error bars represent 1 SEM. The horizontal dashed line represents accurate perception. In (b), relative-strength ratios were computed as grip strength in the right hand divided by grip strength in the left hand, and symmetry in arm length was computed as perceived length of the right arm divided by perceived length of the left arm. The solid line represents linear regression of the data.
