Average inter-digit distances (normalised for each participant to the range 0:1) for grasp of each object, for the control group (black filled dots, n = 6, ± 1 SD), and for three deafferented participants (where each data point corresponds to the average across the five trials for each object). Inter-digit distance was averaged across all digit–digit pairs, i.e. the column-wise average of data in the upper ten rows of the matrices in Fig. 5. The values for the three deafferented participants are highlighted with grey boxes when their t score > 3.0 (p < 0.01) compared to the control group
