“…For example, 5 month old infants are sensitive to visual-proprioceptive congruency (seeing a limb move at the same time as you feel it move): they preferentially attend to nonsynchronous movement over synchronous (Bahrick & Watson, 1985). Likewise, very young infants detect visualtactile synchrony between brush strokes applied to a viewed body, and strokes applied to their own face (Filipetti, Johnson, Lloyd-Fox, Dragovic & Farroni, 2013) or limbs (Zmyj, Jank, Schütz-Bosbach & Daum, 2011). These sensitivities reflect infants' early abilities to detect common properties of stimuli -in this case, temporal and spatial properties of stimulation across the senses -what has been referred to in the literature as amodal perception (Bahrick & Lickliter, 2012).…”
