    An affirmative answer to this question appeared recently in a Nature commentary. Here we question the claim that certain crossmodal correspondences are innate. We suggest an alternative account for the crossmodal correspondence between auditory pitch and visual lightness in terms of the internaliz ation of correlations present in the environment.

    Abstract
    "Are Chimpanz ees synaesthetic?" An affirmative answer to this question appeared recently in a Nature commentary on a study by Ludwig, Adachi, and Matz uz awa (2011) that demonstrated crossmodal correspondences in both chimpanz ees and humans. Here we question the claim that chimpanz ees are synaesthetic. We also question the claim that certain crossmodal correspondences are innate. We suggest an alternative account for the crossmodal correspondence between auditory pitch and visual lightness in terms of the internaliz ation of correlations present in the environment. We highlight the limitations of such natural correlation approaches to the study of crossmodal correspondences as well as how such claims could potentially be tested in future research.
