Abstract: | Auditory elevation localisation was investigated under conditions of illusory self-rotation (i.e., vection) induced by movement of wide-field visual stimuli around participants’ z-axes. Contrary to previous findings which suggest that auditory cues to sound-source elevation are discounted during vection, we found little evidence that vection affects judgements of source elevation. Our results indicate that the percept of auditory space during vection is generally consistent with the available head-centered auditory cues to source elevation. Auditory information about the head-centered location of a source appears to be integrated, without modification, with visual information about head motion to determine the perceived exocentric location of the source. |
