| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Human can perceive visual and auditory information originated with various events surrounding them, and recognize the events based on the percept. In the present study, to examine multimodal (auditory, visual, and somatosensory) interaction and cognitive process of the events, psychological experiments were conducted. The results showed that perceptual directions of auditory and visual stimuli were different, whereas these stimuli were presented from the same direction. The discrepancy between auditory and visual perceptual directions cannot be explained by the differences of modality specific features of each audition and vision. It is considered to be caused by the interaction between audition, vision, and somatic sensation.
