What will be an ideal response?


Infants' remarkable capacity to engage in
intermodal perception enables them to combine information across sensory modalities. Detection of amodal sensory properties, such as rate, rhythm, duration, intensity, temporal synchrony, and texture and shape, seems to provide the basis for detecting more specific intermodal relationships. Intermodal perception is a fundamental ability that fosters all
aspects of psychological development, including perception of the physical world and social and language processing.
