Yet in certain settings, despite object properties remaining constant and intention the same, the grasp chosen by an individual can vary with a lack of clear preference for a particular grasp configuration. This is referred to as motor ambiguity. Here, we compare the influence of preceding static versus dynamic visual information on participants\u2019 choice between two possible hand configurations when grasping an object at various orientations. We confirm previous findings that presentation of an object in an initial static orientation prior to the grasping in ambiguous orientation causes subjects to select a grasp that would be most congruent with the initial, determinate orientation. However, we unexpectedly found that when object rotation is observed between the initial and target positions, the bias is inversed, i.e. subjects choose the alternate grasp configurations. Furthermore, the inverse bias strength was found to be independent of the motion magnitude, and persists even when greater decision time is allowed. We discuss several possibilities across perceptual and decision making circuitry that might manifest this behavioural phenomenon.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s00221-025-07200-x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,27]],"date-time":"2025-11-27T13:26:34Z","timestamp":1764249994000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["From static to dynamic: how object rotation influences grasp decisions in ambiguous settings"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"244","author":[{"given":"Natalie J.","family":"Maffitt","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Emma G.","family":"Cairns","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Julia","family":"Wozna","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Demetris S.","family":"Soteropoulos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alexander","family":"Kraskov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"7200_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"475","DOI":"10.1080\/13506285.2021.1943094","volume":"29","author":"L Battaglini","year":"2021","unstructured":"Battaglini L, Ghiani A (2021) Motion behind occluder: amodal perception and visual motion extrapolation.
