Effects of infrasound on the perception of a low-frequency sound
The study investigated the effects of an 8 Hz infrasound sinusoid, presented at a sensation level (SL) of 9 decibels (dB), on the detection of i) a 64 Hz pure tone and ii) an 8 Hz sinusoidal amplitude modulation imposed on a 64 Hz sinusoidal carrier ...

Cognitive Keys in Psychophysical Estimation of Chemosensory Perception in University Students
Psychophysical methods allow us to measure the relationship between stimuli and sensory perception. Of these, Detection Threshold (DT) allows us to know the minimum concentration to produce taste identification. Given this, we wonder whether, for example,

Magnitude of the contralateral efferent olivocochlear effect as a function of the frequency
Background: The activation of the medial olivocochlear reflex reduces the cochlear gain, which is manifested perceptually as decreased auditory sensitivity.

Application of Individualized Speed Thresholds to Interpret Position Specific Running Demands in Elite Professional Rugby Union: A GPS Study. [PDF]
A number of studies have used GPS technology to categorise rugby union locomotive demands. However, the utility of the results of these studies is confounded by small sample sizes, sub-elite player status and the global application of absolute speed ...
