    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "Can input in one sensory modality strengthen memory in adifferent sensory modality? To address this question, weasked participants to encode images presented in variouslocations (e.g., a depicted dog in the top left corner of thescreen) while they heard spatially uninformative sounds.Some of these sounds matched the image (e.g., the word“dog” or a barking sound) while others did not. In asubsequent memory test, participants were better atremembering the locations of images that were encoded witha matching sound, even though these sounds were spatiallyuninformative – an effect that was mediated by whether thesounds were verbal or non-verbal. Because the sounds did notprovide any relevant location information, better spatialmemory cannot be attributed to auditory memory; rather, it isattributed to visual memory being strengthened by thematching auditory input. These findings provide the firstbehavioral evidence for cross-modal interactions in memory.",
