Overview of the three kinds of cases falling under the heading of multisensory awareness. Evidence of multisensory access is different from evidence that our brains and minds are integrating information about properties, objects and scenes, as these contents could be the result of unconscious processes, and not experienced at once

Integration of information regarding a single property Attribution of different properties referred to the same object Copresence of multiple objects in the same scene
Content Multisensory property Multisensory object Multisensory scene
Access Being aware of a single property across different senses at the same time Being aware that two unisensory properties belong to the same object or are part of a single event Being aware that two unisensory or multisensory objects are present at the same time in the environment
