  • Title: [Effects of the intersensory action of sound on the performance of a simple motor reaction to light in the cat].
    Author: Polianskiĭ VB, Ruderman GL.
    Journal: Fiziol Zh SSSR Im I M Sechenova; 1988 Aug; 74(8):1102-8. PubMed ID: 3197852.
    Abstract:
    In 6 alert cats, placing responses to light and their latencies with added sound stimuli were investigated. The latency recovery cycles demonstrated that in cases of sound-light intervals 750-0 ms and light-sound intervals 0-75 ms the latencies to light were reduced, the maximum of this effect being at sound-light intervals 250-200 ms. Latency to light was enhanced at light-sound intervals 100-350 ms, the maximum being at 100-200 ms. Spatial location of sound source affected the latencies: when the sound source spatially coincided with the light source, the effect of latency shortening was most obvious.
