Loudness Functions and Binaural Loudness Summation in Bilateral Cochlear Implant Users

open access: yesArchives of Acoustics, 2017
Loudness functions and binaural loudness summation was investigated in acoustically stimulated bilaterally implanted cochlear implant users. The study was aimed at evaluating growth of loudness functions and binaural loudness summation in cochlear ...

On the Radio and Optical Luminosity Evolution of Quasars II - The SDSS Sample [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We determine the radio and optical luminosity evolutions and the true distribution of the radio loudness parameter R, defined as the ratio of the radio to optical luminosity, for a set of more than 5000 quasars combining SDSS optical and FIRST radio data.

A Loudness Model for Time-Varying Sounds Incorporating Binaural Inhibition

open access: yesTrends in Hearing, 2016
This article describes a model of loudness for time-varying sounds that incorporates the concept of binaural inhibition, namely, that the signal applied to one ear can reduce the internal response to a signal at the other ear.

Mean and Extreme Radio Properties of Quasars and the Origin of Radio Emission [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We investigate the evolution of both the radio-loud fraction (RLF) and (using stacking analysis) the mean radio-loudness of quasars. We consider how these values evolve as a function of redshift and luminosity, black hole (BH) mass and accretion rate ...

A Comparison of Dynamics in Major- and Minor-key Works

open access: yesEmpirical Musicology Review, 2008
An analysis of dynamic markings in 24 paired preludes in major and minor keys shows that the minor mode is associated with a generally lower dynamic level than the major mode.

Loudness, but not shot power, influences simple reaction times to soccer penalty sounds [PDF]

open access: yesPsihologija, 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.

Toward an Individual Binaural Loudness Model for Hearing Aid Fitting and Development

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
The individual loudness perception of a patient plays an important role in hearing aid satisfaction and use in daily life. Hearing aid fitting and development might benefit from individualized loudness models (ILMs), enabling better adaptation of the ...

Disclosing the Radio Loudness Distribution Dichotomy in Quasars: An Unbiased Monte Carlo Approach Applied to the SDSS-FIRST Quasar Sample [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We investigate the dichotomy in the radio loudness distribution of quasars by modelling their radio emission and various selection effects using a Monte Carlo approach. The existence of two physically distinct quasar populations, the radio-loud and radio-

On the relations among temporal integration for loudness, loudness discrimination, and the form of the loudness function. [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1996
Temporal integration for loudness was measured as a function of level from 2 to 60 dB SL using 2-, 10-, 50-, and 250-ms tones at 5 kHz. The adaptive 2I,2AFC procedure converged at the level required to make the variable stimulus just louder than the fixed stimulus.
