Relative contribution of expectancy and immediate arousal to the facilitatory effect of an auditory accessory stimulus
An auditory stimulus speeds up a digital response to a subsequent visual stimulus. This facilitatory effect has been related to the expectancy and the immediate arousal that would be caused by the accessory stimulus. The present study examined the relative contribution of these two influences. In a...
