Not all synesthetes are alike: spatial vs. visual dimensions of sequence-space synesthesia
THE VARIABILITY OF SEQUENCE-SPACE SYNESTHESIA Sequence-space synesthesia (SSS) is a common condition in which ordinal sequences such as months, numbers or the letters of the alphabet are perceived to occupy spatial locations in the mind’s eye or peripersonal or extrapersonal space (e.g., Price and Mentzoni, 2008; Jonas and Jarick, 2013). For example, thinking about a month may elicit the visuos...
متن کاملSpatial cueing in time-space synesthetes: An event-related brain potential study.
Some people report that they consistently and involuntarily associate time events, such as months of the year, with specific spatial locations; a condition referred to as time-space synesthesia. The present study investigated the manner in which such synesthetic time-space associations affect visuo-spatial attention via an endogenous cuing paradigm. Reaction times and ERPs were recorded as 12 t...
متن کاملMelatonin improves spatial navigation memory in male diabetic rats
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of melatonin as an antioxidant on spatial navigation memory in male diabetic rats. Thirty-two male white Wistar rats weighing 200 ± 20 g were divided into four groups, randomly: control, melatonin, diabetic and melatonin-treated diabetic. Experimental diabetes was induced by intraperitoneal injection of 50 mg kg-1 streptozotocin. Melatonin...
متن کاملEnhanced semantic priming in synesthetes independent of sensory binding.
Synesthesia is the phenomenon in which individuals experience unusual involuntary cross-modal pairings. The evidence to date suggests that synesthetes have access to advantageous item-specific memory cues linked to their synesthetic experience, but whether this emphasis on item-specific memory cues comes at the expense of semantic-level processing has not been unambiguously demonstrated. Here w...
متن کاملLandmark-Based Pedestrian Navigation with Enhanced Spatial Reasoning
Computer vision techniques can enhance landmark-based navigation by better utilizing online photo collections. We use spatial reasoning to compute camera poses, which are then registered to the world using GPS information extracted from the image tags. Computed camera pose is used to augment the images with navigational arrows that fit the environment. We develop a system to use high-level reas...
