Age-related sensory decline mediates the Sound-Induced Flash Illusion: Evidence for reliability weighting models of multisensory perception
Newell, Fiona; Kenny, Rose; Setti, Annalisa (2019)Perception of our world is proposed to arise from combining multiple sensory inputs according to their relative reliability. We tested multisensory processes in a large sample of 2920 older adults to assess whether sensory ... -
Audio-Visual Training in Older Adults: 2-Interval-Forced Choice Task Improves Performance
Setti, Annalisa (2020)A growing interest in ameliorating multisensory perception deficits in older adults arises from recent evidence showing that impaired multisensory processing, particularly in the temporal domain, may be associated with ... -
The effect of eye disease, cataract surgery and hearing aid use on multisensory integration in ageing.
Kenny, Rose; Newell, Fiona; Setti, Annalisa (2020)Sensory impairment is common in ageing, as are approaches to treat it. However, the impact of age-related sensory impairment upon multisensory perception remains unexplored, despite the multisensory nature of our environment. ... -
Gray matter volume in the right angular gyrus is associated with differential patterns of multisensory integration with aging
Newell, Fiona; Setti, Annalisa; Kenny, Rose; Williamson, Wilby (2021)Multisensory perception might provide an important marker of brain function in aging. However, the cortical structures supporting multisensory perception in aging are poorly understood. In this study, we compared regional ... -
Improving the efficiency of multisensory integration in older adults: audio-visual temporal discrimination training reduces the susceptibility to the sound-induced flash illusion.
Kenny, Rose; Newell, Fiona; Setti, Annalisa (2014)From language to motor control, efficient integration of information from different sensory modalities is necessary for maintaining a coherent interaction with the environment. While a number of training studies have focused ... -
Neighbourhood Environment and Cognitive Vulnerability—A Survey Investigation of Variations Across the Lifespan and Urbanity Levels
Setti, Annalisa (2020)Background: Understanding the impact of local communities on wellbeing is a paramount Sustainable Development Goal. In order to inform people-centred planning interventions, it is important to understand what demographic ... -
Urban and rural environments differentially shape multisensory perception in ageing
Newell, Fiona; Kenny, Rose; Setti, Annalisa (2021)Recent studies suggest that the lived environment can affect cognition across the lifespan. We examined, in a large cohort of older adults (n = 3447), whether susceptibility to a multisensory illusion, the Sound-Induced ... -
Virtual reality nature exposure and test anxiety
Setti, Annalisa (2020)The number of students affected by exam anxiety continues to rise. Therefore, it is becoming progressively relevant to explore innovative remediation strategies that will help mitigate the debilitating effects of exam ... -
What you see is what you hear: Twenty years of research using the Sound-Induced Flash Illusion
Newell, Fiona; Setti, Annalisa; Mc Govern, David (2020)In the Sound-Induced Flash Illusion (SIFI) sound dramatically alters visual perception, as presenting a single flash with two beeps results in the perception of two flashes. In this comprehensive review, we synthesise 20 ...
