Definition
This is short hand for a relationship between the stimulus and the sensory system activated by that stimulus.
The Stimulus has_stimulus_modality(X) of the possible modality values because X is the sensory sytem which is activated by the (occurent or continuant playing the role of) Stimulus while the subject is perceiving that stimulus. A single stimulus may have multiple stimulus modalities.
In short, the sensory mechanism through which the subject was stimulated. That is, what was used to stimulate one of their five senses while they were in the scanner?
Parent Entity
- Not sure it has a parent entity, if it is a relationship.
Parent Relation
A stimulus modality is not a stimulus. The stimulus has_modality(available modality type). Not sure how to represent that.
