This is a review of experimental observations which bear upon the interrelations of the various sense departments. There is special emphasis on the co-operative function of the senses, and very little attention is given to the disruptive and inhibitory effects of one sensory system upon another. Also, topics such as attention, synesthesia, distraction, etc. have been excluded. The co-operative relations of the senses are summarized under 4 headings:(1) dynamogenic intersensory effects, where stimulation in one sense modality increases sensitivity or acuity in another;(2) intersensory dependence and consonance, where there is an influence of one modality on the qualities of another modality;(3) intermodal relations in perceiving spatial qualifications; and (4) intermodal relations in perceiving other nonspecific properties of objects, such as weight. In conclusion, it is stated that there are important intersensory effects even though the sensory stimulations are not permitted to have the normal meanings. The most fruitful line of research should be the study of intersensory co-operation in the normal perception of objects.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
