Abstract
This review comprehensively examines the features of the motion-specific brain response produced by human hearing system, the so-called motion-onset response (MOR). We discuss the interpretations of this component of auditory evoked potentials, its dependence on velocity and direction of sound motion and on various spatial characteristics of sound stimuli. We review the studies of event-related oscillations underlying the MOR which have shown that gradual sound motion causes the phase alignment of the delta-alpha range to the motion onset. We also consider the influence of audio-visual integration on motion processing. The MOR component as a correlate of the processes of spatial integration can provide new information about an early pre-conscious activation of brain structures that facilitates orientation and adaptation of a person to a changing acoustic environment.
