Differences and similarities of sound-colour synaesthesia (chromaesthesia) and other related perceptual phenomena
Kysilková, Lenka ; Šebesta, Pavel (advisor) ; Chromý, Jan (referee)
Synaesthesia is a perceptual phenomenon found in a small percentage of the population. Stimulation of one perceptual modality triggers a second sensation in other non-stimulated modality. For example hearing sound would induce concurrent percept of colour. This thesis is focused around phenomenological evidence and possible mechanisms underlying synaesthesia. Resemblance of synaesthesia to other similar perceptual phenomena like crossmodal correspondences makes it difficult to define by researchers. I investigate differences and similarities to crossmodal correspondences and also critically review the methodology of experimental studies. Keywords Synaesthesia, crossmodal correspondences, perception
