Most evidence for cross-modal perception (知觉) comes from studies into sound and vision (视觉).But research that shows other senses crossing over is coming out all the time, and it seems that
12、 even sound and smell sometimes form an unlikely pairing.When New York researchers, Daniel Wesson and Donald Wilson, tried to find out the truth about a “ mysterious” area of the brain called the olfactory tubercle, they had to deal with this fact. Originally,they only intended to measure how olfact

In fact,the olfactory tubercle is well-placed to receive both smell and sound information from the outside world.Later they found that amon

Some cells even behaved differently when smell and sound were presented together, by increasing or decreasing their activity.Of course, mice aren t people, so research team has been carrying

Participants were asked to sniff the drinks, and then match them to appropriate musical instruments and produce the notes at different levels. The results were interesting: piano was regularly paired with fruity fragran
