The neurophysiology of intersensory selective attention and task switching
… oscillations as well as current models of both intersensory selective attention and task switching, I investigated the dynamics of alpha amplitude modulations within the context of intersenory selective attention and task switching in neurologically typical young adults. Participants were …

Variations in critical flicker frequency with intersensory stimulation in two modalities
The present study tested hypotheses concerning magnitude of response to sensory stimulation in one mode, (CFF) relative to intensities of concurrent stimuli in two other modes, (weights and tones). Such heteromodal effects have been investigated under a variety of conditions. Reported results have …

Modified postnatal social experience alters intersensory development of bobwhite quail chicks
… need to occur to maintain species-typical intersensory development. Specifically, chicks in this study were reared in one of four conditions: with normal siblings, with altered tactile experience, with altered auditory experience, or with altered visual experience. Findings revealed that …

Neural Plasticity and the Development of Intersensory Functioning in Bobwhite Quail (Colinus virginianus)
… of normal or species-typical patterns of intersensory perception. For example, unusually early visual experience can produce a facilitative effect on subsequent postnatal perceptual responsiveness, while substantially augmented prenatal visual stimulation can interfere with early postnatal …

The role of stimulus matching in the development of intersensory perception in bobwhite quail
The present study examined the role of the relationship between the type and amount of prenatal and postnatal stimulus cues in directing the perceptual preferences of bobwhite quail chicks. Results reveal that chicks prefer postnatal stimulus cues that matched the particular type of prenatal …

Effects of early and delayed visual experience on intersensory functioning in bobwhite quail chicks
… pattern of the emergence of this type of early intersensory functioning. Hatchlings reared under conditions of delayed visual experience (deprivation) continue to rely on maternal auditory cues alone up to 4 days following hatching, and do not demonstrate a preference for combined audio-visual …

A Multi-method Analysis of Intersensory Perception of Social Information in Children and Adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder
The present study investigated the intersensory processing deficit for social stimuli in individuals with ASD compared to age- and cognitive-ability matched typically developing peers. This deficit was theorized to account (at least partially) for cascading impairments in attention and autism …

The Interrelationships of Intersensory Integration, Visual Sequential Memory, Spatial Ability, and Reading Ability in Second and Third Graders

The effects of augmented prenatal visual stimulation on postnatal perceptual responsiveness in Bobwhite quail
… experience on the subsequent acceleration of intersensory functions are mediated by mechanisms sensitive to the overall amount of stimulation. Results reveal that chicks exposed to augmented amounts of prenatal visual stimulation show interference in subsequent species-typical perceptual …

The Ability of Four-Month-Olds to Discriminate Changes in Vocal Information in Multimodal Displays
Recent investigations into infants' intersensory perception suggest a specific developmental pattern for infants' attention to visible and auditory attributes of dynamic human faces. This work has proposed that infants' perception seems to progress along a sensory continuum: beginning with …

Effects of Prenatal Sensory-Evoked Arousal on Postnatal Behavior and Perceptual Responsiveness in Bobwhite Quail (Colinus virginianus)
… stimulation has been shown to accelerate early intersensory responsiveness, while exposure to concurrent prenatal bimodal sensory stimulation has been shown to interfere with perceptual learning and development. An immediate mechanism that may underlie this developmental intersensory …

THE INFLUENCE OF VISUAL TEXTURE ON THE VISUAL FACILITATION OF AUDITORY LOCALIZATION
<p>A substantial but contradictory literature on intersensory effects exists. Studies have been reported showing facilitation of sensitivity in one modality when other modalities are stimulated, as have studies showing inhibition of sensitivity in one modality when other modalities are stimulated. …

Multimodal dynamics : self-supervised learning in perceptual and motor systems
… algorithms for learning perceptual grounding, intersensory influence, and sensorymotor coordination, which derive training signals from internal cross-modal correlations rather than from external supervision. Our goal is to create systems that develop by interacting with the world around them, …

Multisensory Integration in Social and Nonsocial Events and Emerging Language in Toddlers
… perceptual experiences. Events with high intersensory redundancy across the senses provide salient experiences which aid in the integration process and facilitate perceptual learning. Thus, this study’s first objective was to evaluate if toddlers’ multisensory integration abilities …

Senses In Synthesis: Imaginative Sensing In The 19th Century

Prenatal Perceptual Experience and Postnatal Perceptual Preferences: Evidence for Attentional-Bias in Perceptual Learning
Previous studies have indicated that concurrent multimodal stimulation can interfere with prenatal perceptual learning. However, the nature and extent of this interference is not well understood. This study further assessed this issue by exposing three groups of bobwhite quail embryos to (a) no …
