Multisensory integration: Attending to seen and felt hands
The neglect of one side of space exhibited by some brain-damaged patients can be ameliorated by cueing the patient to the neglected side of space. A related effect has been found to depend on the hand being seen and felt at the same time. The results add to a growing literature on somatosensory-visual interactions.
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...
متن کاملLab 4: Multisensory integration
We first present subjects with visual stimuli v: a low contrast Gaussian blob, very quickly flashed at some position in space xv. The subjects are asked to localize the stimulus position x. We find that the subjects estimates are unbiased on average but display some variability from trial to trial. Their estimates P (x|v) can be modelled using a gaussian distribution with mean xv and variabilit...
متن کاملFacilitation of multisensory integration
Whenever two or more sensory inputs are highly consistent in one or more dimension(s), observers will be more likely to perceive them as a single multisensory event rather than as separate unimodal events. For audiovisual speech, but not for other noncommunicative events, participants exhibit a “unity effect,” whereby they are less sensitive to temporal asynchrony (i.e., that are more likely to...
متن کاملMultisensory Integration and Child Neurodevelopment
A considerable number of cognitive processes depend on the integration of multisensory information. The brain integrates this information, providing a complete representation of our surrounding world and giving us the ability to react optimally to the environment. Infancy is a period of great changes in brain structure and function that are reflected by the increase of processing capacities of ...
