Auditory Perception of a Human Walker
Perception, 2014When one hears footsteps in the hall, one is able to instantly recognise it as a person: this is an everyday example of auditory biological motion perception. Despite the familiarity of this experience, research into this phenomenon is in its infancy compared with visual biological motion perception.

Auditory perception of fractal contours. [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1993 A series of experiments examined auditory contour formation, investigating listeners' sensitivities to a family of random fractals known as fractional Brownian noises. Experiments 1A and 1B looked at identification of contours when 3 different noises were portrayed using variations in the pitch, duration, or loudness of successive notes of a sequence ...

Perception, 1979
A set of three studies was designed to investigate the role of touch-produced sounds in the perception of surface texture. Subjects were capable of judging roughness on the basis of sounds alone. Auditory judgments were similar, but not identical to corresponding haptic touch judgments.

We have begun a series of experiments in the general area of localization or auditory space perception. In these experiments, listeners hear sounds one at a time (either in free field or via headphones) from 20 or more source positions, and make judgments of the relative spatial distance between pairs of sounds. In the free-field conditions, the sounds

Perception of auditory signals
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2011Auditory signals are decomposed into discrete frequency elements early in the transduction process, yet somehow these signals are recombined into the rich acoustic percepts that we readily identify and are familiar with. The cerebral cortex is necessary for the perception of these signals, and studies from several laboratories over the past decade have

Social Differences in Auditory Perception
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1965Two groups differing in social background and ethnicity were found to respond differently to an auditory time error task. The white middle-class group tended to overestimate the intensity of the second of two objectively equal stimuli and showed a rising curve of overestimation as the time interval between stimuli increased from 1 to 5 sec.

In this chapter, we propose to review studies on the capability of making explicit judgments about the duration of auditory time intervals. After a brief look at the main methods used to study time perception, we then focus on factors affecting sensitivity to time (e.

In the design process of concerts halls, it is the task of the architects—preferably with the aid of experience acoustical consultants— to transform their concept on how the hall should sound into built form. To this end, a profound knowledge of the psychoacoustics of listening in concert halls is mandatory.

Sounds and Auditory Perception
2019What makes sounds intriguing items to investigate from a philosophical perspective is their double nature: on the one hand, they are produced by activities involving material objects, which are their sources and are able to carry information about them; on the other hand, they seem to be “disembodied,” detached from their sources, as having an ...

Auditory perception and cognition
IEEE Signal Processing Magazine, 2008In this article, the essential process of auditory perception and advocated for the integration of structural and functional knowledge of the auditory system is reviewed. A perspective, called the constructionist's paradigm, is suggested which looks at the neuron-anatomical structure for auditory perception in three essential stages with intermediate ...
