Amodal completion in vision and audition: A relationship between perception and mental imagery
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Amodal completion is nearly always discussed in terms of vision. In this paper I focus on hearing. I argue that just as we seem to amodally complete the hidden parts of a visual object through visual mental imagery, we also seem to amodally complete the masked parts of a sound through auditory mental imagery. But there remains an important difference between the two modalities.
