TMS of posterior parietal cortex disrupts visual tactile multisensory integration.
Functional neuroimaging studies have implicated a number of brain regions, especially the posterior parietal cortex (PPC), as being potentially important for visual-tactile multisensory integration. However, neuroimaging studies are correlational and do not prove the necessity of a region for the behavioral improvements that are the hallmark of multisensory integration. To remedy this knowledge...
متن کاملNeural Substrates of Reliability-Weighted Visual-Tactile Multisensory Integration
As sensory systems deteriorate in aging or disease, the brain must relearn the appropriate weights to assign each modality during multisensory integration. Using blood-oxygen level dependent functional magnetic resonance imaging of human subjects, we tested a model for the neural mechanisms of sensory weighting, termed "weighted connections." This model holds that the connection weights between...
متن کاملMultisensory Integration: Frequency Tuning of Audio-Tactile Integration
Multisensory information can be crucial, yet in many circumstances we have little, if any, awareness of the effects of multisensory inputs on what appear to be entirely unisensory perceptions. A recent study shows robust effects of auditory input on tactile frequency discriminations and that this auditory cross-sensory interference has specific tuning.
متن کاملMultisensory integration, sensory substitution and visual rehabilitation.
Sensory substitution has advanced remarkably over the past 35 years since first introduced to the scientific literature by Paul Bach-y-Rita. In this issue dedicated to his memory, we describe a collection of reviews that assess the current state of neuroscience research on sensory substitution, visual rehabilitation, and multisensory processes.
متن کاملAuditory and Visual Contributions to Multisensory Integration
Multisensory integration, or the merging of information from multiple sensory modalities, is important for many everyday tasks. One methodology used for examining this process is the Sound Induced Flash Illusion (SIFI), which presents participants with a number of flashes and either the same number of beeps (congruent) or a different number of beeps (incongruent), and requires the participant t...
