Preserved multisensory body representations in advanced age

The Body Schema And The Multisensory Representations Of Peripersonal Space

Others have shown that the body schema plays a role in explicit and implicit distance The space near the body and within reach (peripersonal space) is closely If a multisensory implicit body representation is mediating reaching distance. Brozzoli, C., Makin, T. R., Cardinali, L., Holmes, N. P. and Farne, A. (2011) Peripersonal space: a multisensory interface for body-object interactions. In: Mu...

Towards Interactive Multisensory Data Representations

Despite the availability of a broad range of newly developed multisensory displays and interaction techniques, multisensory interactive data representations are still not widely used. We argue that for complex information analysis multisensory data representations and multimodal interactivity are essential. By leveraging the benefits of the individual sensory modalities multisensory representat...

Multisensory Perception: The Building of Flavor Representations

The perceptual construct of flavor is built on the basis of interactions between taste and odor processing. Recent work sheds new light on how intimately coupled these two senses are, and call into question conventional views about the 'unisensory' processing of odors.

Evidence for preserved representations in change blindness.

People often fail to detect large changes to scenes, provided that the changes occur during a visual disruption. This phenomenon, known as "change blindness," occurs both in the laboratory and in real-world situations in which changes occur unexpectedly. The pervasiveness of the inability to detect changes is consistent with the theoretical notion that we internally represent relatively little ...
