Examples

  • In ordinary circumstances, crossmodal processes serve to reduce or resolve apparent conflicts in information drawn from separate senses, and thereby make perception more reliable overall.

    Auditory Perception O'Callaghan, Casey 2009

  • Thus, crossmodal illusions differ from synaesthesia.

    Auditory Perception O'Callaghan, Casey 2009

  • Charles Spence, a professor of experimental psychology, performs crossmodal research at Oxford University.

  • In an interesting asymmetry, crossmodal learning transferred to all visual tasks but not to auditory tasks.
