Multisensory perception: Beyond modularity and convergence
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent research on multisensory perception suggests a number of general principles for crossmodal integration and that the standard model in the field--feedforward convergence of information--must be modified to include a role for feedback projections from multimodal to unimodal brain areas.

Video game players show more precise multisensory temporal processing abilities.
Recent research has demonstrated enhanced visual attention and visual perception in individuals with extensive experience playing action video games. These benefits manifest in several realms, but much remains unknown about the ways in which video game experience alters perception and cognition. In the present study, we examined whether video game players' benefits generalize beyond vision to m...
متن کاملMultimodal Convergent Information Enhances Perception Accuracy of Human Movement Patterns
Previous neurophysiological and neurobiological research has revealed different areas of multisensory integration in the CNS. Behavioral consequences of multimodal convergent stimuli arrays (visual/auditory/ somatosensory) have been observed on different kinds of higher mammals (cats, monkeys). Multisensory convergence neurons output directly affects motor behavior: Depending on convergent or d...
متن کاملHemispheric asymmetry and visuo-olfactory integration in perceiving subthreshold (micro) fearful expressions.
Multisensory integration is ubiquitous, facilitating perception beyond the limit of individual senses. This mechanism is especially salient when individual sensory input is weak (i.e., the principle of inverse effectiveness), fusing subthreshold cues into tangible percepts. Nevertheless, it is unclear how this rule applies to threat perception, synthesizing elusive, discrete traces of a threat ...
متن کاملAssessing Multisensory Integration with Additive Factors and Functional Mri
The topic of this presentation is the use of additive-factor designs in combination with functional MRI to assess multisensory integration. Unisensory and multisensory stimuli were presented across two different pairings of sensory systems, audio-visual (AV) and visuohaptic (VH). In addition to stimulus modality, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) was included as an additive factor. Previous research ...
متن کاملModularity of Convergence and Strong Convergence in Infinitary Rewriting
Properties of Term Rewriting Systems are called modular iff they are preserved under (and reflected by) disjoint union, i.e. when combining two Term Rewriting Systems with disjoint signatures. Convergence is the property of Infinitary Term Rewriting Systems that all reduction sequences converge to a limit. Strong Convergence requires in addition that redex positions in a reduction sequence move...
