Sonic Seasoning and Other Multisensory Influences on the Coffee Drinking Experience

Influences of Multisensory Experience on Subsequent Unisensory Processing

Multisensory perception has been the focus of intense investigation in recent years. It is now well-established that crossmodal interactions are ubiquitous in perceptual processing and endow the system with improved precision, accuracy, processing speed, etc. While these findings have shed much light on principles and mechanisms of perception, ultimately it is not very surprising that multiple ...

Heavy coffee drinking and epilepsy

Dietary habits have been rarely associated with seizure frequency in patients with epilepsy. We report a case of a man with a partial symptomatic epilepsy whose daily habit of heavy coffee drinking was associated with an increased seizure frequency. This patient witnessed a dramatic decrease in the frequency of his seizures after stopping coffee ingestion. Caffeine is a global stimulant and the...

Drinking and Sexual Experience on

Using Steele's inhibitory conflict model (C. M. Steele & R. A. Josephs, 1990) as a framework, the present study investigated the link between alcohol use and the probability that intercourse occurred on 2 different 1st date occasions in a random sample of adolescents and young adults interviewed twice approximately 4 ~/2 years apart (Ns = 1,678 and 1,780, respectively). As expected, both betwee...

Sociocultural influences on smoking and drinking.

Few studies have examined the effects of sociocultural factors on the tendency of smokers to drink and drinkers to smoke. However, the limited evidence available suggests that such factors exist and that the strength of the association b...
