abstract="&quot;The effect on visual sensitivity of simultaneous stimulation with a tone was measured. No reliable differences were obtained for either the general or the specific color threshold. These results are discussed with reference to the reported observations that visual acuity is increased in the presence of a simultaneously acting auxiliary stimulus. Since the threshold for light is a direct measure of the sensitivity of the retina, the negative results obtained between sound and sight indicate either (1) that the alleged cortical diffusion is obtainable under particular conditions, not covered by these experiments, or (2) that the mechanism of diffusion is of such a nature that sensitivity for light is not primarily affected.&quot; (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2012 APA, all rights reserved)<p />",
