Synaesthesia affects one in 1000
- Synaesthesia affects one in 1000
A NEW study has examined a strange sensory condition, which causes people to taste music or see colours in words.
The condition, known as synaesthesia, causes two or more human senses to act as if they are interconnected, and is believed to affect up to one in a thousand people worldwide.
``It is common for a synaesthete to see colours when listening to words, University of Granada researcher Alicia Callejas Sevilla said.
``There are also cases, although fewer, where people can see colours in flavours, others ...

1 person out of every 1,000 has synaesthesia, in which an individual can smell a sound
- 1 person out of every 1,000 has synaesthesia, in which an individual can smell a sound.
The research field has grown from grapheme-colour synaesthesia to include other forms of synaesthesia in which flavours are evoked by music or words (lexical-gustatory synaesthesia), space structures by time units, colours by music, etc. Experts on Experimental Psychology from the University of Granada are studying this phenomenon. The results of this research have been published by the following scientific journals, among others: Cortex, Experimental Brain Research and Consciousness and Cognition.

This phenomenon, called synaesthesia - from the Greek syn (with) and aisthesis (sensation) - consists of the pairing of two bodily senses by which the perception of a determined stimulus activates a different subjective perception with no external stimulus (in science, the evoker stimulus is called inducer and ...
