Preferred term

multimodal interactions: neural basis  

Definition

  • Our sensory world is made up of stimuli in the form of various types of environmental energy. To deal with the vast array of information we are continually bombarded with, specialized sensory systems have evolved, each of which is tuned to a different form of energy (e.g., light, chemical, mechanical).
