最近，游泳式颜色通感作为一种新的通感形式被引入。使用通感Stroop测试来确定其真实性。由于Stroop干扰可以发生在任何类型的过度关联中，在本研究中，我们使用了改进的Stroop测试和心理生理学通感条件反射来进一步确定这种形式的通感的真实性。我们比较了游泳式颜色联想者和接受游泳式颜色联想训练的对照组的表现。我们的结果表明，游泳式颜色通感的行为方面可以在训练有素的对照组中模仿。然而，重要的是，我们的结果显示，只有联觉者才有心理生理条件作用。根据不同的通感模型，我们讨论了游泳式颜色通感的理论相关性。我们的结论是，游泳式颜色通感是一种真正的通感形式，可以在行为上模仿非通觉者，并可用折返反馈模型进行最佳解释。(C)2012 Elsevier Inc.保留所有权利。
Recently, swimming-style colour synaesthesia was introduced as a new form of synaesthesia. A synaesthetic Stroop test was used to establish its genuineness. Since Stroop interference can occur for any type of overleamed association, in the present study we used a modified Stroop test and psychophysiological synaesthetic conditioning to further establish the genuineness of this form of synaesthesia. We compared the performance of a swimming-style colour synaesthete and a control who was trained on swimming-style colour associations. Our results showed that behavioural aspects of swimming-style colour synaesthesia can be mimicked in a trained control. Importantly, however, our results showed a psychophysiological conditioning effect for the synaesthete only. We discuss the theoretical relevance of swimming-style colour synaesthesia according to different models of synaesthesia. We conclude that swimming-style colour synaesthesia is a genuine form of synaesthesia, can be mimicked behaviourally in non-synaesthetes, and is best explained by a re-entrant feedback model.
