Localization of objects and events in the environment is critical for survival, as many
perceptual and motor tasks rely on estimation of spatial location. Therefore, it seems …

To obtain a coherent percept of the environment, the brain should integrate sensory signals
from common sources and segregate those from independent sources. Recent research has …

If a person is trained to recognize or categorize objects or events using one sensory
modality, the person can often recognize or categorize those same (or similar) objects and …

When presented with a spatially discordant auditory-visual stimulus, subjects sometimes
perceive the sound and the visual stimuli as coming from the same location. Such a …

Using a mouse-driven visual pointer, 10 participants made repeated open-loop egocentric
localizations of memorized visual, auditory, and combined visual-auditory targets projected …

When a visual target is presented with neighboring landmarks, its location can be
determined both relative to the self (egocentric coding) and relative to these landmarks …

During the last two decades ferrets (Mustela putorius) have been established as a highly
efficient animal model in different fields in neuroscience. Here we asked whether ferrets …

Previous research suggests that anticipating pain at a particular body location prioritizes
somatosensory input at that location. The present study tested whether this prioritization …

Perceived duration can be influenced by various properties of sensory stimuli. For example,
visual stimuli of higher temporal frequency are perceived to last longer than those of lower …

A spatial task was used to investigate if a stimulus could set the occasion for responding to a
landmark. Pigeons were trained with a positive occasion setter (OS; a colored background …
