Recent studies have revealed how attention operates across modalities and affects the
detection of, the orientation to, and the perceptual localization of, stimuli. In contrast …

Since different senses are attuned to the different aspects of the environment, crossmodal
interactions can reduce perceptual ambiguity which may result from relying on a single …

Identical visual targets moving across each other with equal and constant speed can be
perceived either to bounce off or to stream through each other. This bistable motion …

A large body of work now exists that demonstrates the interaction between different sensory
modalities when they are integrated into a single coherent percept. Yet, it is not yet clear …

In unisensory contexts, spatially-focused attention tends to enhance perceptual processing.
How attention influences the processing of multisensory stimuli, however, has been of much …

The P3 component of the event-related potential (ERP) to an acoustic startle probe is
modulated during picture viewing, with reduced P3 amplitude when participants view either …

Motion perception can be altered by information received through multiple senses. So far,
the interplay between the visual and the auditory modality in peripheral motion perception is …

When looking at two identical objects moving toward each other on a two-dimensional visual
display, two different events can be perceived: the objects can either be seen to bounce off …

In this study, the authors combined the cross-modal dynamic capture task (involving the
horizontal apparent movement of visual and auditory stimuli) with spatial cuing in the vertical …

A perception of coherent motion can be obtained in an otherwise ambiguous or illusory
visual display by directing one's attention to a feature and tracking it. We demonstrate an …
