▼ We inhabit a world that offers a multitude of sensory cues that need to be disambiguated in order to perceive and interact with our surrounding environment. However, it is not clear how goal-directed actions reciprocally influence multisensory integration processes. The current dissertation examined how directing attention through visual gaze and to-be-reached locations influenced multisensory perception of visual and auditory cues. Participants performed pointing movements towards one of three potential targets, while looking above or beside that target. At the onset of the movement, multisensory stimuli (i.e., one or two flashes combined with one or two beeps) could be presented at the target of the reaching action, or in one of the non-target locations. Audiovisual perception was quantified by examining the influence of the auditory beeps on the number of perceived flashes (i.e., audio-visual illusion). It was hypothesized that looking at and/ or reaching to a target would modulate audiovisual perception. The results revealed audiovisual perception (specifically the fusion illusion, though not the fission illusion) was enhanced at the target relative to the non-target locations. Audiovisual integration associated with the fusion illusion was further reduced with increasing eccentricity of non-target locations. As well, when decoupling gaze locations from the target locations, audiovisual perception was additively driven by gaze and reaching locations. Moreover, this modulation of audiovisual perception at target vs. non-target locations was only observed in the presence, but not the absence, of a goal-directed movement. Overall, the results indicated that deploying attention by looking and reaching to a target location may enhance audiovisual perception at that location, emphasizing the critical importance of voluntary movements to the perception of our surrounding environment. The data also suggest that the fusion and fission illusions may arise from distinct integration mechanisms. Advisors/Committee Members: Tremblay, Luc, Exercise Sciences.

▼ The field of motor control has devoted a lot of attention to the use of sensory information during movements for the maintenance of accuracy. This sensorimotor processing has been colloquially termed online control. Its accurate quantification and identification has posed a continual challenge to motor control researchers. Consequently, many measures of online control have been developed and have shaped the concurrent state of the field. Recent theories of online control have posited the existence of multiple distinct feedback processes. The current dissertation sought to gain insights into the multi-faceted nature of online control by evaluating the utility of frequency domain analyses as a tool for its quantification. Frequency domain analyses were hypothesized to be sensitive to the aforementioned distinct feedback processes given the assumption that they operate at unique timescales. Four experiments were conducted and evidence was obtained in favour of the utility of frequency domain analyses for the quantification of online control. Specifically, frequency domain analyses were found to be both one of the most sensitive measures to online control and the most robust measure to offline contamination. Thus frequency domain analyses represent an excellent choice for the evaluation of online control processes. Additionally, theoretical insights were attained through the sensitivity of frequency domain analyses to the contribution of two distinct processes contributing to reaching performance. The first was an iterative visuomotor process that influenced reaching performance at relatively stable rates. Notably, the specific rate of influence was found to be flexible based on the spatio-temporal requirements of reaching movements. Additionally, frequency domain analyses were found to be sensitive to a second, non-visual process. This process was promoted in the absence of online vision and likely represented the contribution of a peripheral proprioceptive process. Importantly, contemporary alternative methodologies for the quantification of online control were not sensitive to the unique contributions of this secondary process. Altogether, the current dissertation reaffirmed and expanded upon the multi-faceted nature of online feedback utilization and provided a novel approach to its quantification.

La littérature sur les processus d’intégration multisensoriels (i.e., transformations sensorimotrice) avant et pendant des mouvements volontaires ont principalement utilisé des cibles visuelles. Considérant que la modalité d’une cible influence le cadre de référence utilisé pour contrôler un mouvement volontaire, l’objectif principal des trois expériences de la présente thèse était d’examiner ces processus de transformations sensorimotrices, et ce, spécifiquement pour des mouvements vers un cible somatosensorielle. Les deux premières expériences ont examiné les transformations sensorimotrices pendant la planification du mouvement. L’objectif de la troisième expérience était d’examiner les transformations sensorimotrices utilisée pour le contrôle du mouvement vers une cible somatosensorielle. Les résultats des deux premières expériences indiquent que des même des signaux auditifs peuvent faciliter l’utilisation d’un cadre de référence visuel du corps pour transformer la position de cibles somatosensorielles. Ces processus de transformation pourraient nécessiter des processus supplémentaires et engagent clairement des réseaux corticaux visuels et visuomoteurs. De plus, les résultats de la troisième expérience indique que des corrections apportées aux mouvements vers des cibles somatosensorielles perturbées prennent moins de temps pour être initiées en plus d’être plus efficaces et précises que des corrections apportées aux mouvement vers des cibles visuelles. De plus, cette troisième expérience indique que des cibles somatosensorielles ne sont pas nécessairement transformées dans un référentiel visuel avant de corriger un mouvement volontaire en cours d’exécution.

Research on multisensory integration for goal-directed movements has focused on targets external to the body. In this dissertation, three experiments were conducted to examine sensorimotor transformation processes for movements to body positions (i.e., somatosensory targets). The goal of the first experiment was to investigate if the modality of the cue used to indicate the location of a somatosensory target affects the body representation used to encode the target’s position during movement planning. The results showed that auditory cues prompted the use of an exteroceptive body representation for the encoding of movements to somatosensory targets in visual coordinates. The goal of the second experiment was expand on this finding and examine the neural processes associated with the visual remapping auditory-cued somatosensory targets. It was found that the sensorimotor transformation processes responsible for the conversion of somatosensory target positions to visual coordinates engages visuomotor cortical networks to a greater extent than movements to external visual targets. The goal of the third experiment was to examine the sensorimotor transformation processes employed for the online control of movements to somatosensory targets. These results provide evidence that the remapping of somatosensory targets into visual coordinates may not occur prior to…
