Abstract

Pupil diameters of color-grapheme synaesthetes were measured with an infrared eye-tracker while Stroop-like alphanumeric symbols were passively viewed. Pupils dilated more when synaesthetes viewed incongruently-colored symbols than congruently-colored symbols or symbols printed in the standard black ink. The results show that the physiological measure of pupillary diameter can be used as a marker of the synaesthetic experience.
