General Description of Research Interests
Typically, perceptual events are multi-modal, that is, they contain information that can be processed by more than one sense system. For example, the perception of an approaching car is aided by the car growing size and its increasing engine sound. My research examines the way our perceptual system process information from several sources within and across sense modalities, primarily vision and audition. I am focusing on two complementary questions: (a) how do we integrate information from different sources to form one percept? And (b) How do we selectively attend to relevant source of information while filtering out the irrelevant sources? My interest in auditory perception focuses on the way loudness perception changes when auditory stimuli are presented in sequence or are dynamically modulated.
