Combining the senses: the role of experience- and task-dependent mechanisms in the development of audiovisual simultaneity perception

The brain's ability to integrate information from the different senses is essential for decreasing sensory uncertainty and ultimately limiting errors. Temporal correspondence is one of the key processes that determines whether information from …

Overlapping but Divergent Neural Correlates Underpinning Audiovisual Synchrony and Temporal Order Judgments

Multisensory processing is a core perceptual capability, and the need to understand its neural bases provides a fundamental problem in the study of brain function. Both synchrony and temporal order judgments are commonly used to investigate synchrony …

A Psychophysical Investigation of Differences Between Synchrony and Temporal Order Judgments

Synchrony judgments involve deciding whether cues to an event are in synch or out of synch, while temporal order judgments involve deciding which of the cues came first. When the cues come from different sensory modalities these judgments can be used …

Crossmodal Integration of Emotional Stimuli in Alcohol Dependence

Face–voice integration has been extensively explored among healthy participants during the last decades. Nevertheless, while binding alterations constitute a core feature of many psychiatric diseases, these crossmodal processing have been very little …

Action expertise reduces brain activity for audiovisual matching actions: an fMRI study with expert drummers

When we observe someone perform a familiar action, we can usually predict what kind of sound that action will produce. Musical actions are over-experienced by musicians and not by non-musicians, and thus offer a unique way to examine how action …
