Neural dynamics of the competition between grouping organizations have been studied to a limited extent. The paradigms used so far confounded grouping operations with task demands, using explicit reports of the predominantly perceived organization and bias ...
Studies indicated that people behave less responsibly after exposure to information containing deterministic statements as compared to free will statements or neutral statements. Thus, deterministic primes should lead to enhanced risk-taking behavior. We t ...
Human listeners place greater weight on the beginning of a sound compared to the middle or end when determining sound location, creating an auditory illusion known as the Franssen effect. Here, we exploited that effect to test whether human auditory cortex ...

Dynamically changing environments, unreliable state estimation, and operation under severe resource constraints are fundamental challenges for robotics, which still limit the deployment of small autonomous drones. We address these challenges in the context ...
Quality of Experience (QoE) is a time-varying perceptual process. Despite its complexity and numerous impacting factors, recent efforts have been made to come up with subjective assessment methodologies of QoE. However, no time-continuous variant of subjec ...
Background The estimation of relative distance is a perceptual task used extensively in everyday life. This important skill suffers from biases that may be more pronounced when estimation is based on haptics. This is especially true for the blind and visua ...
The population of developed countries is aging at an ever increasing rate. Even in the absence of neurodegenerative diseases, aging affects perceptual and cognitive functions that are crucial for everyday life. The effects of healthy aging on cognitive abi ...
In our experience of daylit architecture, our visual perception is greatly impacted by the ephemeral and inherently dynamic conditions of the surrounding environment. Driven by changes in sky type, time-of-day, and time-of-year, these variable conditions c ...
The scope and limits of unconscious processing are a matter of ongoing debate. Lately, continuous flash suppression (CFS), a technique for suppressing visual stimuli, has been widely used to demonstrate surprisingly high-level processing of invisible stimu ...

The integration of information has been considered a hallmark of human consciousness, as it requires information being globally available via widespread neural interactions. Yet the complex interdependencies between multisensory integration and perceptual ...
