Characteristic sounds facilitate visual search.
In a natural environment, objects that we look for often make characteristic sounds. A hiding cat may meow, or the keys in the cluttered drawer may jingle when moved. Using a visual search paradigm, we demonstrated that characteristic sounds facilitated visual localization of objects, even when the sounds carried no location information. For example, finding a cat was faster when participants h...
متن کاملConditioned Sounds Enhance Visual Processing
This psychophysics study investigated whether prior auditory conditioning influences how a sound interacts with visual perception. In the conditioning phase, subjects were presented with three pure tones ( = conditioned stimuli, CS) that were paired with positive, negative or neutral unconditioned stimuli. As unconditioned reinforcers we employed pictures (highly pleasant, unpleasant and neutr...
متن کاملVisual approach to speech sounds
Many people often struggle to master the pronunciation of foreign languages without much success. One of the reasons why L2 learners are not successful is because teaching pronunciation in the classroom is usually marginalized. With the advent of computers, this problem may partially have been overcome, due to the fact that many different types of systems and software for autonomous learning ha...
متن کاملSounds activate visual cortex and improve visual discrimination.
A recent study in humans (McDonald et al., 2013) found that peripheral, task-irrelevant sounds activated contralateral visual cortex automatically as revealed by an auditory-evoked contralateral occipital positivity (ACOP) recorded from the scalp. The present study investigated the functional significance of this cross-modal activation of visual cortex, in particular whether the sound-evoked AC...
متن کاملSounds Move a Static Visual Object
BACKGROUND Vision provides the most salient information with regard to stimulus motion, but audition can also provide important cues that affect visual motion perception. Here, we show that sounds containing no motion or positional cues can induce illusory visual motion perception for static visual objects. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Two circles placed side by side were presented in alter...
