Discriminating audiovisual speed: optimal integration of speed defaults to probability summation when component reliabilities diverge.

abstract：:When viewing a wide-angle visual display, which rotates in the frontoparallel plane around the line of sight, observers experience an illusory shift of the direction of gravity; this shift leads to an apparent tilt of the body and displaces allocentric space coordinates. In this study, subjects adjusted an indicator t...
