The goal of the present paper was to establish normative data of the VIMSSQ-short for men and women based on online surveys and to compare these results with findings from previously published work. VIMSSQ-short data from 920 participants were collected across four online surveys. In addition, the relationship with other relevant constructs such as susceptibilities to classic motion sickness (via the Motion Sickness Susceptibility Questionnaires (MSSQ)), Migraine, Dizziness, and Syncope, was explored. Normative data for the VIMSSQ-short showed a mean score of M = 7.2 (standard deviation (SD) = 4.2) and a median of 7, with a good test reliability (Cronbach's alpha = 0.80). No significant difference between men and women showed. The VIMSSQ-short correlated significantly with the MSSQ ( r = 0.55), Migraine ( r = 0.48), Dizziness ( r = 0.35), and Syncope ( r = 0.31). Exploratory factor analysis of all variables suggested two latent variables: nausea-related and oculomotor-related. Norms for this study were consistent with the only other large online survey. But average VIMSSQ-short values were lower in smaller studies of participants volunteering for cybersickness experiments, perhaps reflecting self-selection bias. The VIMSSQ-short provides reliability with efficient compromise between length and validity. It can be used alone or with other questionnaires, the most useful being the MSSQ and the Migraine Screening Questionnaire.","PeriodicalId":51298,"journal":{"name":"Multisensory Research","volume":" ","pages":"1-22"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144163601","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, few studies have investigated this influence when the two intervals to be discriminated share the same stimulus, and none of these have included the tactile modality. The aim of the present study was to investigate, in multimodal conditions, the capability to discriminate two adjacent intervals, using an equisection and adjustment method. Participants had to adjust the second of three brief successive signals marking two empty intervals until they were subjectively perceived as equal. The experiment included nine modality conditions and intervals between Markers 1 and 3 lasted 0.5, 1, 1.5, or 2 s (four standard conditions). The results show that the adjustment is better (lower variability) with three auditory (A) than with three visual (V) or tactile (T) markers, and these three conditions are better than when Marker 2 differs from Markers 1 and 3 (all intermodal conditions). Differences also emerged in the perceived duration of intermodal conditions. In TVT and VTV conditions, intervals marked by a tactile-visual (TV) sequence are perceived as longer than VT intervals, and in AVA and VAV conditions AV intervals are perceived as longer than VA intervals. Finally, AT intervals are perceived as longer than TA intervals, but only in the short standard conditions. In addition to replicating the classical variability increase when short intermodal intervals are used, the study shows the influence on perceived duration of the speed of processing of a visual signal.","PeriodicalId":51298,"journal":{"name":"Multisensory Research","volume":" ","pages":"77-122"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144163563","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For homogeneous objects, the CoM is at the geometric centre (GC), computable from shape cues. However, everyday objects often include components of different materials and densities. In this case, the CoM depends on the object's geometry and the components' densities. We asked how participants estimate the CoM of novel, two-part objects. Across four experiments, participants used a precision grip to lift cylindrical objects comprised of steel and PVC in varying proportions (steel three times denser than PVC). In all experiments, initial grasps were close to objects' GCs; neither every-day experience (metals are denser than PVC) nor pre-exposure to the stimulus materials in isolation moved first grasps away from the GC. Within a few trials, however, grasps shifted towards the CoM, reducing but not eliminating torque. Learning transferred across the stimulus set, that is, observers learnt the materials' densities (or their ratio) rather than learning each object's CoM. In addition, there was a stable 'under-reaching' bias towards the grasping hand. An 'inverted density' stimulus set (PVC 3 × denser than steel) induced similarly fast learning, confirming that prior knowledge of materials has little effect on grasp point selection. When stimulus sets were covertly switched during an experiment, the unexpected force feedback caused even faster grasp adaptation. Torque minimisation is a strong driver of grasp point adaptation, but there is a surprising lack of transfer following pre-exposure to relevant materials.","PeriodicalId":51298,"journal":{"name":"Multisensory Research","volume":" ","pages":"1-30"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144163583","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They also link shape features with certain taste qualities through inherent associations commonly referred to as crossmodal correspondences. This research examined how shape features influence the evaluation of familiar and unfamiliar products, and thus varying levels of semantic knowledge. Participants evaluated the expected taste, familiarity, liking, and willingness to purchase products with curved and angular logos presented with sweet, bitter, and neutral characteristics, as well as unfamiliar products. The results of Experiment 1 indicated that the curved logos were preferred and associated with greater sweetness, while the angular logos were less preferred and associated with bitterness. However, in Experiment 2, these differences disappeared when the logos were presented with packages of familiar (sweet, bitter, and neutral) and unfamiliar products. In Experiment 3, the expected tastes for the logos were more pronounced when they were framed as representing new or unfamiliar products than sweet and bitter familiar products. The difference in expected sweetness between curved and angular logos was greater for new or unfamiliar products than for familiar sweet products, and the same pattern was found for expected bitterness. Together, these results suggest that feature-based expectations of taste are absent or less pronounced when semantic knowledge about the products is greater.","PeriodicalId":51298,"journal":{"name":"Multisensory Research","volume":" ","pages":"27-59"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144163627","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

He described multisensory phenomena at a functional and macroscopic physiological level in patients with unilateral parieto-occipital cortical lesions in an associative area equidistant from the visual, tactile and auditory areas. The disorder is a multisensory and bilateral alteration called 'central syndrome'. Here we focus on some aspects related to the facilitation effect, i.e., the improvement in the perception of a test stimulus with the help of another stimulus. The greater the lesion and the lower the intensity of the test stimulus, the greater the facilitation effect. One of the most effective facilitating stimuli in these patients was found to come from the motor system, such as muscular effort. The gradation observed between different cortical syndromes led Gonzalo to introduce the concept of functional cortical gradients, whose superposition would result in multisensory zones. The fact that functional behaviour in the central syndrome is considered similar to that of a normal individual, but on a reduced scale of excitability, allows scaling concepts to be applied and some generalisations to be made.","PeriodicalId":51298,"journal":{"name":"Multisensory Research","volume":" ","pages":"1-17"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144163587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After taking part in the Current Rising immersive experience at the Royal Opera House, 726 participants completed a survey examining the different perceived impacts the various additional elements were thought to have on presence. Blowing wind and free-roam walking were thought to be most impactful on presence, followed by floor vibration (contrary to expectations), along with seeing avatars. Conversely, virtual hands were thought to exhibit the least influence, despite being rendered with greater detail and precision than those commonly found in standard VR applications. Past VR experience only minimally affected these reported impacts, suggesting that hyper-reality experiences introduce novel elements even to experienced users. By looking at the perceived impact on presence over a rich, holistic range of factors (multisensory elements, virtual bodies, prior experience and enjoyment) in a real-world cultural experience, these findings offer practical guidance for immersive experience designers and researchers to optimise presence. Future research should explore more nuanced assessments of presence and consider non-correlational experimental designs that mitigate various highlighted potential biases and confounding factors.","PeriodicalId":51298,"journal":{"name":"Multisensory Research","volume":" ","pages":"1-25"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144163579","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
