Journal ArticleDOI
Moving sounds enhance the visually-induced self-motion illusion (circular vection) in virtual reality
TL;DR: Both self-motion perception and presence can benefit from adding moving auditory stimuli, which has important implications both for multimodal cue integration theories and the applied challenge of building affordable yet effective motion simulators.
Journal ArticleDOI
Action sounds recalibrate perceived tactile distance.
Ana Tajadura-Jiménez,Ana Tajadura-Jiménez,Aleksander Väljamäe,Iwaki Toshima,Toshitaka Kimura,Manos Tsakiris,Norimichi Kitagawa +6 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that tactile perception is referenced to an implicit body-representation which is informed by auditory feedback, the first evidence of the contribution of self-produced sounds to body- representative, addressing the auditory-dependent plasticity of body- representation and its spatial boundaries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Near-infrared spectroscopy based neurofeedback training increases specific motor imagery related cortical activation compared to sham feedback
Silvia Erika Kober,Guilherme Wood,Jürgen Kurzmann,Elisabeth V. C. Friedrich,Elisabeth V. C. Friedrich,Matthias Stangl,T. Wippel,Aleksander Väljamäe,Christa Neuper,Christa Neuper +9 more
TL;DR: Real neurofeedback induced specific and focused brain activation over left motor areas over the eight training sessions and can be useful when training patients with focal brain lesions to increase activity of specific brain areas for rehabilitation purpose.
Journal ArticleDOI
Embodied auditory perception: the emotional impact of approaching and receding sound sources.
TL;DR: The results of this study suggest that approaching unpleasant sound sources evoke more intense emotional responses in listeners than receding ones, whereas such an effect of perceived sound motion does not exist for pleasant or neutral sound sources.
Journal ArticleDOI
Auditorily-induced illusory self-motion: a review.
TL;DR: The reviewed studies provide evidence that auditorily-induced vection has behavioral, physiological and neural correlates, and a number of open research questions are highlighted opening avenue for more active and systematic studies in this area.
