What is it about?

It is about how we process irrelevant multisensory stimuli. When we look at them, the signals from different modalities are integrated - this means they highly influence each other. When we don't look at them directly, the signals are processed more independently from each other - so less "together". To summarize, the less attention we devote to an object or event, the less it is integrated to a related scene.

Why is it important?

It's important because it helps getting insight into the processing of our sourrounding multisensory world.

Perspectives

This is my first publication and I am very happy about it. I think it is an important topic and I hope to be at least a small puzzle to a bigger picture.
