Journal ArticleDOI

Taste-olfactory convergence, and the representation of the pleasantness of flavour, in the human brain

TL;DR: An event‐related fMRI study investigates where in the human brain these interactions between taste and odour stimuli (administered retronasally) may be realized, and provides evidence on the neural substrate for the convergence of taste and olfactory stimuli to produce flavour in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantitative assessment of pleasant touch.

TL;DR: Questions are raised as to whether the body surface can be mapped affectively in a meaningful manner with a single stimulus and indeed whether pleasantness-to-touch can be viewed as a unidimensional construct.
Journal ArticleDOI

The multisensory perception of flavor: Assessing the influence of color cues on flavor discrimination responses

TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of visual color cues on people's flavor discrimination and flavor intensity ratings for a variety of fruit-flavored solutions was investigated, and it was shown that the modulatory effect of visual cues on flavor perception can override participants' awareness that the solutions would frequently be colored inappropriately.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multisensory flavor perception: Assessing the influence of fruit acids and color cues on the perception of fruit-flavored beverages

TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of fruit acids (in particular, citric and malic acid) on people's perception of the identity and the intensity of a variety of different fruit-flavored solutions was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vision influences tactile perception at body sites that cannot be viewed directly

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that prior experience of seeing a body site, such as occurs when viewing the face in mirrors, produces larger effects of viewing than body sites rarely seen such as the back of the neck.
