Experimental setting.

<p>A schematic of the bird's-eye view of experimental setting, with superposed the average trajectories (for the high and low social status conditions and the familiarization block), and the minimal path solution (dashed line) composed by connecting two straight segments both orthogonal to the working surface: one spanning from the IRED of the wrist in starting position to the IRED of the wrist in initial position, the other spanning from the IRED of the object in initial position to the IRED of the object in end position. The initial and the end target position as well as the respective distances from the starting agent's hand position are illustrated. The attendee is shown in the two tested conditions of distance (close and far) together with the distance of the far condition from the workspace (i.e. 1000 mm), and the corresponding peripersonal spaces (dotted semicircles).
