Anticipating multisensory environments: Evidence for a supra-modal predictive system

Our perceptual experience is generally framed in multisensory environments abundant in predictive information. Previous research on statistical learni…

Individual differences in visual pattern completion predict adaptation to degraded speech

Recognizing acoustically degraded speech relies on predictive processing whereby incomplete auditory cues are mapped to stored linguistic representati…

Activation of human visual area V6 during egocentric navigation with and without visual experience

Aggius-Vella et al. show that visual experience is not critical to develop selectivity for navigation in visual retinotopic area V6. People with blindness who learn to navigate virtual mazes based on a new sonification algorithm recruit area V6. Moreover, area V6 contains sensory-motor information that might be relevant for egocentric navigation.

Rethinking modality-specificity in the cognitive neuroscience of concrete word meaning: a position paper

A core assumption in the current neurosemantic research is that meanings of concrete words (object nouns, action verbs) are at least partially grounded in modality-specific representations implemen...
