Enhancing rhythmic temporal expectations: The dominance of auditory modality under spatial uncertainty
To effectively process the most relevant information, the brain anticipates the optimal timing for allocating attentional resources. Behavior can be...

Not perceptually equivalent in semantic emotion across visual and auditory modalities: cross-modal affective norms of two-character Chinese emotion-label words
Over recent years, although multi-sensory studies have increasingly revealed modality-specific mechanisms underlying lexical processing, validated...

Sound-induced flash illusion is modulated by the depth of auditory stimuli: Evidence from younger and older adults
Sound-induced flash illusion (SiFI) refers to an auditory dominance effect in which observers misperceive the number of visual flashes due to the...

Cortical signatures of auditory looming bias show cue-specific adaptation between newborns and young adults
Adaptive biases in favor of approaching, or “looming”, sounds have been found across ages and species, thereby implicating the potential of their...

Exploring behavioral adjustments of proportion congruency manipulations in an Eriksen flanker task with visual and auditory distractor modalities
The present study investigated global behavioral adaptation effects to conflict arising from different distractor modalities. Three experiments were...

Orthography-phonology consistency in English: Theory- and data-driven measures and their impact on auditory vs. visual word recognition
Research on orthographic consistency in English words has selectively identified different sub-syllabic units in isolation (grapheme, onset, vowel,...

Incidental auditory category learning and visuomotor sequence learning do not compete for cognitive resources
The environment provides multiple regularities that might be useful in guiding behavior if one was able to learn their structure. Understanding...

Stimulus temporal uncertainty balances intersensory dominance
Vision is typically dominant over audition or touch in human adults. One classic example is the Colavita visual dominance effect: The presentation of...

Semantically congruent audiovisual integration with modal-based attention accelerates auditory short-term memory retrieval
Evidence has shown that multisensory integration benefits to unisensory perception performance are asymmetric and that auditory perception...

GAUDIE: Development, validation, and exploration of a naturalistic German AUDItory Emotional database
Since thoroughly validated naturalistic affective German speech stimulus databases are rare, we present here a novel validated database of speech...

Perceptual timing precision with vibrotactile, auditory, and multisensory stimuli
The growing use of vibrotactile signaling devices makes it important to understand the perceptual limits on vibrotactile information processing. To...

Increased body movement equals better performance? Not always! Musical style determines motion degree perceived as optimal in music performance
Musicians’ body behaviour has a preponderant role in audience perception. We investigated how performers’ motion is perceived depending on the...

Nonverbal Auditory Cues Allow Relationship Quality to be Inferred During Conversations
The claim that nonverbal cues provide more information than the linguistic content of a conversational exchange (the Mehrabian Conjecture) has been...

Multisensory integration of musical emotion perception in singing
We investigated how visual and auditory information contributes to emotion communication during singing. Classically trained singers applied two...

Long-term memory representations for audio-visual scenes
In this study, we investigated the nature of long-term memory representations for naturalistic audio-visual scenes. Whereas previous research has...

Face-voice space: Integrating visual and auditory cues in judgments of person distinctiveness
Faces and voices each convey multiple cues enabling us to tell people apart. Research on face and voice distinctiveness commonly utilizes...
-
Exposure to multisensory and visual static or moving stimuli enhances processing of nonoptimal visual rhythms
Research has shown that visual moving and multisensory stimuli can efficiently mediate rhythmic information. It is possible, therefore, that the...
-
Voluntary task switching is affected by modality compatibility and preparation
Cognitive task control can be examined in task-switching studies. Performance costs in task switches are usually smaller with compatible...

Attentional modulations of audiovisual interactions in apparent motion: Temporal ventriloquism effects on perceived visual speed
The timing of brief stationary sounds has been shown to alter different aspects of visual motion, such as speed estimation. These effects of auditory...
