Abstract

Visual ambiguity might be resolved by an information of other sensory modalities (Deroy et al., 2014). Previously, our group has shown audio-visual interactions when a score was accompanied by a matching melody during binocular rivalry (BR, Lee et al., 2015; Kim et al., 2017). In the present study, we investigated whether perceptual selection of a score during BR is influenced by a relevant action with/without auditory feedback. A musical score scrolling to the left and a vertical grating drifting to the right were presented dichoptically. Participants reported their visual dominance of a score by playing the midi keyboard (piano task) or by indicating the direction of each note stem using a computer key (control task). For the piano task, there were three auditory-feedback conditions: congruent, incongruent, and no-feedback. In the congruent condition, participants heard the sound as they played score dominance. In the incongruent condition, participants heard the ‘wrong’ sound since a random tone was paired with each key press. In the no-feedback condition and the control task, no auditory-feedback was presented. To normalize each score dominance/suppression duration of the three auditory-feedback conditions during the piano task, we divided it with the individual mean score dominance/suppression duration during the control task. Results showed that the normalized score-dominance durations in the incongruent and no-feedback conditions were shorter than those in the congruent condition (p<.01). There was no difference between the incongruent and the no-feedback conditions. For the normalized score-suppression durations, there were no differences across the three auditory-feedback conditions. These results suggest that perceptual selection during BR is influenced by a relevant action in that visual dominance of a musical score decreased when it is reported by piano playing with incorrect or no auditory feedback.
