Not many studies have been done on sensory overload, but one example of a sensory overload study was reported by Lipowski (1975) [35] as part of his research review on the topic that discussed the work done by Japanese researchers at Tohoku University. The Tohoku researchers exposed their subjects to intense visual and auditory stimuli ...
There are many forms of lexical–gustatory synesthesia and the various taste sensations linked to the neurological condition vary widely from synesthete to synesthete. [7] Examples of many well-known synesthetic taste experiences are recorded in case studies with singular participants that demonstrate the variability of the condition.
Synesthesia is a neurological condition in which two or more bodily senses are coupled. For example, in a form of synesthesia known as grapheme-color synesthesia, letters or numbers may be perceived as inherently colored. Historically, the most commonly described form of synesthesia (or synesthesia-like mappings) has been between sound and ...
