British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Early childhood has increasingly been acknowledged as a vital time for all children. Inclusive and quality education is part of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, with the further specification that all children have access to quality pre‐primary education.

Perception & Psychophysics, 1979 In a loudness bisection task, subjects varied one sound to lie halfway between two given sounds in terms of loudness. The two given sounds were varied from 30 to 90 dB in a 4 by 9 factorial design. Functional measurement methods based on monotone analysis provided good support for the bisection model, and yielded a loudness scale with an exponent of ...

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 The Better hEAring Rehabilitation (BEAR) project aims to provide a new clinical profiling tool—a test battery—for hearing loss characterization. Although the loss of sensitivity can be efficiently measured using pure-tone audiometry, the assessment of ...

Autophonic Loudness of Singers in Simulated Room Acoustic Environments [PDF]
, 2023 This paper aims to study the effect of room acoustics and phonemes on the perception of loudness of one's own voice (autophonic loudness) for a group of trained singers. For a set of five phonemes, 20 singers vocalized over several autophonic loudness ratios, while maintaining pitch constancy over extreme voice levels, within five simulated rooms ...

Applications of Phenomenological Loudness Models to Cochlear Implants
Frontiers in Psychology, 2021 Cochlear implants electrically stimulate surviving auditory neurons in the cochlea to provide severely or profoundly deaf people with access to hearing. Signal processing strategies derive frequency-specific information from the acoustic signal and code ...

Temporal Loudness Weights Are Frequency Specific
Frontiers in Psychology, 2021 Previous work showed that the beginning of a sound is more important for the perception of loudness than later parts. When a short silent gap of sufficient duration is inserted into a sound, this primacy effect reoccurs in the second sound part after the

Evidence for radio loud to radio quiet evolution from red and blue quasars [PDF]
2020, PASP 132, 1017, 2020 Recent work on red and blue quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) has identified peculiar number distributions as a function of radio loudness that we explore and attempt to explain from the perspective of a picture in which a subset of the population of active galaxies evolves from the radio loud to the radio quiet state.

Aerosol emission and superemission during human speech increase with voice loudness
Scientific Reports, 2019 Mechanistic hypotheses about airborne infectious disease transmission have traditionally emphasized the role of coughing and sneezing, which are dramatic expiratory events that yield both easily visible droplets and large quantities of particles too ...

Loudness, but not shot power, influences simple reaction times to soccer penalty sounds [PDF]
Psihologija, 2018 Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate how ecological sport sounds (i.e., foot-ball impacts of soccer penalty kicks) affect simple reaction times.
