Assessing the Role of the ‘Unity Assumption’ on Multisensory Integration: A Review (2017, background): “…research has demonstrated that the effect of multisensory integration is more pronounced when the participants attend to stimuli in both sensory modalities rather than focusing on just the stimulus in one modality (e.g., Talsma et al., 2007; Mozolic et al., 2008; Fairhall and Macaluso, 2009).”
Distinct Functional Contributions of Primary Sensory and Association Areas to Audiovisual Integration in Object Categorization (2010, background): “, due to spatial attention (Busse et al., 2005; Fairhall and Macaluso, 2009), the superadditive interactions in primary auditory cortex were observed equally for both, explicit categorization and passive exposure.”
Contextual factors multiplex to control multisensory processes (2016, background): “…behavioral [e.g., Sanabria et al., 2007], event-related potential [ERP; e.g., Matusz and Eimer, 2013; Talsma et al., 2007], and neuroimaging [e.g., Fairhall and Macaluso, 2009] findings, supporting the claim that attention can affect multisensory outcomes [reviewed in van Atteveldt et al., 2014].”
Preattentive processing of audio-visual emotional signals. (2011, unknown): “Similar to the automatic and pre-attentive binding of audio-visual speech signals (Bertelson, Vroomen, de Gelder, & Driver, 2000; Driver, 1996; but see Fairhall & Macaluso, 2009), audio-visual integration of emotions has been assumed to be an automatic process (Vroomen, Driver, & de Gelder, 2001).”
Does crossmodal correspondence modulate the facilitatory effect of auditory cues on visual search? (2012, background): “Considering the evidence that attention is sometimes essential for crossmodal binding (see, e.g., Alsius et al., 2005; Fairhall & Macaluso, 2009; Talsma et al., 2007), it may be that those tasks in which the attentional focus is rather narrow from the very beginning, such as simple detection tasks…”
When emotional valence modulates audiovisual integration (2012, unknown): “However, more recently, some authors have questioned the full automaticity of this crossmodal binding effect and have suggested that attention might at least have a modulating influence (Fairhall & Macaluso, 2009; Röder & Büchel, 2009).”
Flexibility and Stability in Sensory Processing Revealed Using Visual-to-Auditory Sensory Substitution (2014, background): “These shifts were detected in associative areas and were mostly lateralized to the left hemisphere, in areas previously reported to exhibit multisensory responses (Jones and Powell 1970; Calvert 2001; Fairhall and Macaluso 2009; Beauchamp et al. 2010; Noppeney et al. 2010).”
The COGs (context, object, and goals) in multisensory processing (2016, background): “To return to the question posed at the beginning of this section, the top-down nature of the mechanisms underlying multisensory processes triggered by the detection of matches with specific object categories might be responsible for the effective dependence of these processes on top-down attentional”
The Curious Incident of Attention in Multisensory Integration: Bottom-up vs. Top-down (2016, unknown): “In support of the idea that attention has a strong effect on MSI of high level stimuli, Fairhall and Macaluso (2009) have recently found that spatial attention enhances BOLD response in different brain areas, such as the superior temporal sulcus, the visual cortex and the superior colliculus for…”
Intersensory binding across space and time: A tutorial review (2013, background): “More recently, though, some authors have questioned the full automaticity of the ventriloquist effect and suggested that attention might at least have a modulating influence (Fairhall & Macaluso, 2009; Röder & Büchel, 2009; Sanabria, Soto-Faraco & Spence, 2007b).”
