What kinds of mental states can be based on epistemic reasons? The standard answer is only beliefs. I argue that perceptual states can also be based on reasons, as the result of crossmodal interactions. A perceptual state from one modality can provide a reason on which an experience in another modality is based. My argument identifies key markers of the basing relation and locates them in the crossmodal Marimba Illusion (Schutz & Kubovy 2009). The subject’s auditory experience of musical tone duration is based on the reason provided by her visual representation of the length of the musician’s gesture and other stored perceptual principles.

跨模式基础

什么样的心理状态可以基于认知原因？标准答案只是信念。我认为，作为跨模态交互的结果，感知状态也可以基于原因。来自一种模态的知觉状态可以为另一种模态的体验提供一个理由。我的论点确定了基础关系的关键标记并将它们定位在交叉模式马林巴错觉中（Schutz & Kubovy 2009）。对象对音调持续时间的听觉体验是基于她对音乐家手势长度的视觉表现和其他存储的感知原理所提供的原因。
