Multisensory integration: perceptual grouping by eye and ear
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent studies using modern functional imaging methods have provided insights into the brain areas involved in combining information across the senses, and the manner in which sensory signals are integrated within them. These findings are remarkably consistent with the results from single-unit recording in animals.

Intramodal perceptual grouping modulates multisensory integration: evidence from the crossmodal dynamic capture task.
We investigated the extent to which intramodal visual perceptual grouping influences the multisensory integration (or grouping) of auditory and visual motion information. Participants discriminated the direction of motion of two sequentially presented sounds (moving leftward or rightward), while simultaneously trying to ignore a task-irrelevant visual apparent motion stream. The principles of p...
متن کاملWhen does visual perceptual grouping affect multisensory integration?
Several studies have shown that the direction in which a visual apparent motion stream moves can influence the perceived direction of an auditory apparent motion stream (an effect known as cross-modal dynamic capture). However, little is known about the role that intramodal perceptual grouping processes play in the multisensory integration of motion information. The present study was designed t...
متن کاملEffect of multisensory stimulation on oxygen saturation in premature infants during eye examination
Background: Eye examination for screening of Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP), as a painful procedure, causes physiological changes in premature infants. Multisensory stimulation is a non-pharmacological analgesic method which affects physiological measures during painful procedures. Aim: To determine the effect of multisensory stimulation on oxygen saturation in premature infants during eye ex...
متن کاملThe Complex Interplay Between Multisensory Integration and Perceptual Awareness.
The integration of information has been considered a hallmark of human consciousness, as it requires information being globally available via widespread neural interactions. Yet the complex interdependencies between multisensory integration and perceptual awareness, or consciousness, remain to be defined. While perceptual awareness has traditionally been studied in a single sense, in recent yea...
متن کاملPerceiving emotions by ear and by eye
Affective information is conveyed through visual as well as auditory perception. The present paper considers the integration of these channels of information, that is, the multisensory processing of emotion. Findings from behavioral, neuropsychological and imaging studies are reviewed.
