Auditory information enhances post-sensory visual evidence during rapid multisensory decision-making
A conclusive account on how the brain translates audiovisual evidence into a rapid decision is still lacking. Here, using a neurally-informed modelling approach, the authors show that sounds amplify visual evidence later in the decision process, in line with higher-order multisensory effects.
