A selective impairment of perception of sound motion direction in peripheral space: A case study (2015)
Journal Article
Thaler, L., Paciocco, J., Daley, M., Lesniak, G., Purcell, D., Fraser, J., …Culham, J. (2018). A selective impairment of perception of sound motion direction in peripheral space: A case study. Neuropsychologia, 80, 79-89. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2015.11.008It is still an open question if the auditory system, similar to the visual system, processes auditory motion independently from other aspects of spatial hearing, such as static location. Here, we report psychophysical data from a patient (female, 42... Read More about A selective impairment of perception of sound motion direction in peripheral space: A case study.
Neural Correlates of Human Echolocation of Path Direction During Walking (2015)

Multisensory Research, 28(1-2), 195-226. https://doi.org/10.1163/22134808-00002491Echolocation can be used by blind and sighted humans to navigate their environment. The current study investigated the neural activity underlying processing of path direction during walking. Brain activity was measured with fMRI in three blind echolo...
