Semantic congruency modulates the speed-up of multisensory responses

K Roberts, I Jentzsch, TU Otto - Scientific Reports, 2024 - nature.com
Responses to multisensory signals are often faster compared to their unisensory
components. This speed-up is typically attributed to target redundancy in that a correct …
