Summary

This image demonstrates the logic of one test used to demonstrate the reality of synesthesia. On the left is the image presented to participants, in which a triangle composed of 2s is embedded among a field of 5s. For non-synesthetes this triangle would be hard to identify (displays were presented for one second). However, for someone who experiences 2s as red and 5s as green, the triangle should be more easily identified. Subsequent research (see Hubbard et al., 2005; Hubbard and Ramachandran, 2005) has shown that this effect is not true of all synesthetes.

This simple  diagram image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.


It is recommended to name the SVG file “Synaesthesiatest.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.
