This effect is a classical demonstration of auditory-visual integration, where subjects infer that there is only a single cause (the puppet's talking) for both visual (puppet's facial movements) and auditory (speech) stimuli.
The McGurk effect (http://auditoryneuroscience.com/McGurkEffect; http://epsych.msstate.edu/descriptive/crossModal/mcgurk/index.html), which shows how vision can influence what we hear, is an outstanding demonstration of an auditory illusion.
Whilst the present study and previous other demonstrations of reduced auditory processing under high visual load point toward a shared capacity between vision and hearing, it is important to note that these demonstrations have all been obtained with assessments of the impact of visual load on auditory detection.
This may accord with other demonstrations that some parts of auditory cortex can receive convergent input from other senses [e.g., see Ghazanfar et al., 2005; Lakatos et al., 2007; see also Bizley et al., 2007; Kayser et al., 2007, 2008; Schroeder and Foxe, 2005] via direct or indirect anatomical connections [see Falchier et al., 2002, 2010].
Following the demonstration that auditory sensation can be elicited by applying the bone vibrator to the head, neck, and thorax (STC) [ 10], the present study is an attempt to assess the possibility that some aspects of these sensations are correlated with distribution of body structure and size.
One day I just came by a science museum and enjoyed a demonstration about Delayed Auditory Feedback (D.A.F). at a cognitive science corner.
In this classic demonstration based on the perception of spoken syllables, incongrent lip movements induce the misperception of auditory inputs.
What's more, H.V.N. groups must accept all interpretations of auditory hallucinations as equally valid.
Perhaps the most dramatic clinical use of tDCS has been in the treatment of auditory hallucinations.
The chronic disease is a gradually deteriorating onset of auditory hallucinations and psychosis.
Sounds enter the content of auditory perception.
