Research topic
The integration of multisensory information takes place even when part of this information is irrelevant or even misleading in the current context. This becomes obvious when conflicting information from a task-irrelevant modality influences nevertheless our reactions. The mechanisms which enable us to pursue a goal in spite of conflicting information are subsumed under the label cognitive control or executive control. This research project investigates the role of cognitive control in multisensory integration.
