---

1.  The condition of visual neglect is commonly localized to which cortex? Parietal cortex of the left hemisphere Frontal cortex of the left hemisphere Parietal cortex of the right hemisphere Frontal cortex of the right hemisphere

2.  At which location in the brain do audiovisual interactions commonly occur? Inferior Colliculus Superior Colliculus Superior Olivary Nucleus Medial Geniculate Nucleus

3.  Following the hearing loss in the cat, area FAES comes to primary process which sensory modality? Audition Smell Somatosensation Vision

4.  Following hearing restoration with a cochlear implant, area FAES comes to primary process which sensory modality? Audition Smell Somatosensation Vision

5.  The McGurk Effect demonstrates that: Accurate sound localization depends on the pinna Visual attention is critical in order to determine the “gist” of a visual scene The perception of speech is affected by both auditory and visual stimulation A child’s hearing develops before vision
