It has become accepted in the neuroscience community that perception and performance
are quintessentially multisensory by nature. Using the full palette of modern brain imaging …

154 Bahrick and Lickliter felt, and as we move around and interact with the people, places,
and objects in our environment we produce continuous changes in proprioceptive and …

That the senses provide overlapping information for objects and events is no extravagance
of nature. This overlap facilitates attention to critical aspects of sensory stimulation, those …

This research examined the developmental course of infants' ability to perceive affect in
bimodal (audiovisual) and unimodal (auditory and visual) displays of a woman speaking …

The natural environment provides a flux of concurrent stimulation to all our senses, far more
than can be attended to at any given moment in time. Adults are exquisitely skilled at …

During our everyday lives, we are confronted with a vast amount of information from several
sensory modalities. This multisensory information needs to be appropriately integrated for us …

A considerable number of cognitive processes depend on the integration of multisensory
information. The brain integrates this information, providing a complete representation of our …

Background Studies of perceptual learning have largely focused on unisensory stimuli.
However, multisensory interactions are ubiquitous in perception, even at early processing …

Sensori-motor synchronization (SMS) is the coordination of rhythmic movement with an
external rhythm. It plays a central role in motor, cognitive, and social behavior. SMS is …

During the first years of life, sensory modalities communicate with each other. This process
is fundamental for the development of unisensory and multisensory skills. The absence of …
