Crossmodality (i.e., the integration of stimulations coming from different sensory modalities) is a crucial ability in everyday life and has been extensively explored in healthy adults. Still, it has not yet received much attention in psychiatry, and particularly in alcohol-dependence. The present study investigates the cerebral correlates of crossmodal integration deficits in alcohol-dependence to assess whether these deficits are due to the mere accumulation of unimodal impairments or rather to specific alterations in crossmodal areas.
