Head and body space to left and right, front and rear--II. Visuotactual and kinesthetic studies and left-side underestimation.

abstract：:Musical melodies have "peaks" and "valleys". Although the vertical component of pitch and music is well-known, the mechanisms underlying its mental representation still remain elusive. We show evidence regarding the importance of previous experience with melodies for crossmodal interactions to emerge. The impact of th...
