Sensitivity of Auditory and Vestibular Systems to Stimuli Other Than Sound and Motion.

摘要

There is evidence to suggest that auditory and vestibular systems can be stimulated by forms of energy other than sound, gravity and motion. This report reviews the evidence related to such sensitivity and indicates the potential importance of enhanced sensory capabilities. Suggestions for future research on the response of the auditory and vestibular systems to additional environmental stimuli are presented.
