The impact of a visual spatial frame on real sound-source localization in virtual reality
2020, Current Research in Behavioral SciencesMisperception of exocentric directions in auditory space
2008, Acta PsychologicaCitation Excerpt :Several varieties of this possibility may be distinguished. ( 1) Information from non-visual sensory modalities could be converted into a visual format in the process of encoding, so that stored three-dimensional spatial information bears the properties of visual space even if vision is not the original source modality (Auerbach & Sperling, 1974; Platt & Warren, 1972; Shelton & McNamara, 2001, 2004; Simpson, 1972; Warren, 1970). ( 2) Information from multiple modalities could be integrated into a unified spatial representation, in which individual locations remain labeled according to their source modality (Yamamoto & Shelton, 2005).

Poor hand-pointing to sounds in right brain-damaged patients: Not just a problem of spatial-hearing
2005, Brain and CognitionCitation Excerpt :Across blocks, hand-pointing to sounds was either performed with eyes-open or blindfolded, with eyes and head always free to move after stimulus presentation. In healthy participants, under these circumstances, the mere presence of ambient vision can produce more accurate hand-pointing to sounds, presumably as a consequence of better orienting of the eyes and the head towards the auditory target (Platt & Warren, 1972; Warren, 1970). We speculated that such facilitation should only be evident when visuospatial perception is intact.
