Crossmodal influences on visual perception.
Vision is generally considered the dominant sensory modality; self-contained and independent of other senses. In this article, we will present recent results that contradict this view, and show that visual perception can be strongly altered by sound and touch, and such alterations can occur even at early stages of processing, as early as primary visual cortex. We will first review the behaviora...
متن کاملSociocultural influences on disease perception.
Differences in the prevalence and natural history of diseases between races have been well recognised. The prevalence of Hepatitis B infection, nasopharyngeal carcinoma and systemic lupus erythematosus for instance, is relatively high among the Chinese as compared to the Malays and Indians living in apparently the same community. Black Americans have a higher prevalence of hypertension than Whi...
متن کاملEmotional influences on time perception
In studies on prospective time perception, a prolonging effect of arousal on time estimates is commonly reported for durations under 2s while the effect vanishes for longer intervals. In this study, we investigated how arousal and pleasure induced by aural stimuli varying in volume and valence influenced reproductions in the range from 1.1s to 5s. As expected, higher arousal was associated with...
متن کاملSurrogate consent for critical care research: exploratory study on public perception and influences on recruitment
INTRODUCTION Critical Care research involves an increasing level of technical and clinical interventions for the unconscious patient. If the general public has a negative (unfavourable) view of surrogate consent, low recruitment rates are likely. Results bias will be introduced if study populations are small, hindering knowledge generation and transfer through research. In the rapidly expanding...
متن کاملSensorimotor influences on speech perception in infancy.
The influence of speech production on speech perception is well established in adults. However, because adults have a long history of both perceiving and producing speech, the extent to which the perception-production linkage is due to experience is unknown. We addressed this issue by asking whether articulatory configurations can influence infants' speech perception performance. To eliminate i...
