Emotional states as mediators between tinnitus loudness and tinnitus distress in daily life: Results from the “TrackYourTinnitus” application

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
The psychological process how tinnitus loudness leads to tinnitus distress remains unclear. This cross-sectional study investigated the mediating role of the emotional state “stress level” and of the two components of the emotional state “arousal” and ...

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.

Morphometric Differences of Vocal Tract Articulators in Different Loudness Conditions in Singing

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Introduction Dynamic MRI analysis of phonation has gathered interest in voice and speech physiology. However, there are limited data addressing the extent to which articulation is dependent on loudness.

Gender differences in loudness perception may be linguistically influenced

open access: yesMechanical Engineering Journal, 2019
Previous studies have reported gender differences in loudness perception. To clarify factors that affect loudness perception of men and women, so that differences in their processing of auditory stimuli might be revealed, we conducted four experiments ...

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 ...

The Independence of AGN Black Hole Mass and Radio-Loudness [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophys.J. 581 (2002) L5-L8; Erratum-ibid. 583 (2003) L47, 2002
We revisit the issue of whether radio loudness in AGN is associated with central black hole mass, as has been suggested in the literature. We present new estimates of black hole mass for 295 AGN (mostly radio-quiet), calculating their radio loudnesses from published radio and optical fluxes, and combine with our previously published values, for a ...

Merging the Psychophysical Function With Response Times for Auditory Detection of One vs. Two Tones

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2022
The purpose of this study is to take preliminary steps to unify psychoacoustic techniques with reaction-time methodologies to address the perceptual mechanisms responsible for the detection of one vs. multiple sounds.

Quasar Radio-Loudness and the Elliptical Core Problem [PDF]

open access: yes(2010) MNRAS, 407, 2393, 2010
The dichotomy between radio-loud and radio-quiet QSOs is not simply one of host morphology. While spiral galaxies almost exclusively host radio-quiet QSOs, ellipticals can host either radio-louds or radio-quiets. We find that a combination of accretion rate and host scale determines which type of QSO a given elliptical galaxy will host.

What is Noise Sensitivity?

open access: yesNoise and Health, 2022
Background: Noise sensitivity moderates the association between environmental noise exposure and annoyance and health outcomes. Methods: In normally hearing adults, we measured noise sensitivity in three ways: using the noise sensitivity questionnaire, a
