How sensitive is hand transport to illusory context effects?

A recent report that hand transport was sensitive to a size-contrast illusion (SCI) implied that the distinction between visual processing for perception versus action might only affect visual information obtained late during reaching. In this study, the presence of a perceptual SCI did not affect reaction time, movement time, or movement amplitude. However, both perception and action became sensitive to the SCI with memory-based responses. It is concluded that the distinction between visual processing for perception versus action does extend to hand transport. Immediate action is entirely based on veridical visuo-motor representations, whereas even slightly delayed actions begin to reflect distorted perceptual representations.
