“…Finally, the neural correlates of binding tendency remain elusive. Neural network modeling has suggested the strength of lateral connectivity between unisensory regions as one possible neural mechanism and human neuroimaging studies have reported an increase in functional connectivity between unisensory brain regions following associative crossmodal learning [41,43]. Further research is needed to unravel the neural correlates of binding tendency in different processing domains, and for different types of sources of bias, namely top-down vs. bottom-up binding priors.…”

“…In Odegaard and Shams' study [27], the effect of passive exposure to different types of auditory-visual relationships on binding tendency led to findings that could not be explained by statistical learning in that exposure to congruent and incongruent stimuli did not lead to respective increases or decreases in binding tendency. Instead, a predictive coding framework [43,53,54,55,56,57] was argued to account for their multisensory learning effects. In this framework, learning is driven by prediction errors and, therefore, events that contradict the current internal model of the world would produce the largest degree of learning.…”

“…In the "Multisensory Associative Learning" section we discussed how forming associations between co-occurring sensory stimuli can lead to an increase in tendency to bind the stimuli. To investigate the neural changes induced by new associations, von Kriegstein and colleagues used fMRI to measure participants' brain activity before, during, and after learning associations between voices and faces [43]. They found increased functional connectivity between voice and face areas as a result of such ecologically valid multisensory associative learning.…”

Integration of sensory signals that emanate from the same source, such as the visual of lip movements and the sound of the voice of a speaking individual, can improve perception of the source signal (e.g., speech). Because momentary sensory inputs are typically corrupted with internal and external noise, there is almost always discrepancy between the inputs and consequential uncertainty about whether they have stemmed from the same source or not. Thus, whether or not multisensory stimuli are integrated and the degree to which they are bound is influenced by factors such as the prior expectation of a common source. We refer to this factor as the tendency to bind stimuli, or for short, binding tendency. In theory, the tendency to bind sensory stimuli can be learned by experience through acquisition of the probabilities of co-occurrence of the stimuli. It can also be influenced by cognitive knowledge of the environment. The binding tendency varies across individuals and can also vary within an individual over time. Here, we review the studies that have investigated the plasticity of binding tendency. We discuss the protocols that have been reported to produce changes in binding tendency, the candidate learning mechanisms involved in this process, the possible neural correlates of binding tendency, and outstanding questions pertaining to binding tendency and its plasticity. We conclude with proposing directions of future research and argue that understanding mechanisms and recipes for increasing binding tendency can have important clinical and translational applications for populations or individuals with a deficiency in multisensory integration.
