The impact of olfactory disorders in the United kingdom.

abstract：:In order to explore the cross-modal cognitive associations between smell and taste, a chemosensory analogue of the Stroop task (Stroop 1935) was developed. Fourteen participants were presented with an odorant and a tastant and asked to identify the tastant as "sweet" or "sour" by pressing 1 of 2 buttons as quickly as ...

abstract：:There is no natural physical continuum for odor quality along which an odor quality discrimination (OQD) threshold can be measured. In an attempt to overcome this problem, the substitution-reciprocity (SURE) method defines a framework for the measurement of an OQD threshold. More specifically, it (i) defines a thresho...

Thus far, it is unclear whether visual and olfactory stimuli are indeed integrated at an early perceptual stage and which role the congruenc...
