[Intermodal vestibulo-optical transformation of sensory perception]
1Universitäts-Hals-Nasen-Ohrenklinik, Essen.
Abstract:
There is no objective correlate for a reduction of the absolute threshold of excitability of the vestibular organ during subliminal rotation by the exposition of transient light stimuli, i.e. an intermodal vestibulo-optical transformation, which is supposed to be possible in aesthesiophysiology. Only on rotation at a speed near the limit threshold value, pseudomotions of the exposed lighting point will occur. However, these are the consequences of an eye movement reflex, of fixation or cervical reflexes, i.e. a phenomenal event, and not an exteroceptive measure for the identification of subliminar vestibular stimuli.

General senses refer to the broad category of sensory information detected by receptors in the body and can be further grouped into somatic and visceral senses. Somatic sensations include touch, pressure, temperature, and pain and are essential for navigating our environment and...

The receptor level:
The receptor level is the first stage of sensation. It involves the detection of a stimulus by specialized sensory receptors. The stimulus must arrive within the receptor's receptive field. Next, the receptor converts the energy of the stimulus...
