Stress and odor sensitivity in persons with noise sensitivity
Noise and Health, 2013 Previous research has indicated that sensory sensitivity/intolerance to a specific modality may be part of a more general environmental hypersensitivity, and possibly mediated by stress. This study investigated the relationship between noise sensitivity, perceived stress, and odor sensitivity in a group of men. A quasi-experimental design was used. One-

The development of the noise sensitivity questionnaire
Noise and Health, 2007 The existing questionnaires for determining the noise sensitivity of individuals provide information only about global noise sensitivity, although empirical data suggest that measuring noise sensitivity for different situations in daily life might be more logical. Therefore, the "Noise-Sensitivity-Questionnaire" (NoiSeQ) was developed to measure global

Teachers’ Noise Sensitivity and Efforts to Prevent Noise Pollution in School [PDF]
Eurasian Journal of Educational Research, 2021 The noise phenomenon at school is one of the factors that may negatively affect school climate. Purpose In this study, the noise sensitivity and coping efforts of classroom teachers who intensely experienced noise phenomenon in their school were determined using basic qualitative research.

On the decline of 1st and 2nd order sensitivity with eccentricity [PDF]
, 2008 We studied the relationship between the decline in sensitivity that occurs with eccentricity for stimuli of different spatial scale defined by either luminance (LM) or contrast (CM) modulation.

Cooperativity, Sensitivity, and Noise in Biochemical Signaling [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2008 Cooperative interactions among the binding of multiple signaling molecules is a common mechanism for enhancing the sensitivity of biological signaling systems. It is widely assumed that this increase in sensitivity of the mean response implies the ability to detect smaller signals.

Analysis and Optimization of Noise Response for Low-Noise CMOS Image Sensors [PDF]
, 2012 CMOS image sensors are nowadays widely used in imaging applications and particularly in low light flux applications. This is really possible thanks to a reduction of noise obtained, among others, by the use of pinned photodiode associated with a ...

Characteristics of hyperacusis in the general population
Noise and Health, 2016 There is a need for better understanding of various characteristics in hyperacusis in the general population. The objectives of the present study were to investigate individuals in the general population with hyperacusis regarding demographics, lifestyle,

Noise sensitivity signatures for model selection [PDF]
Proceedings of the 12th IAPR International Conference on Pattern Recognition (Cat. No.94CH3440-5), 2002 Presents a method for calculating the "noise sensitivity signature" of a learning algorithm which is based on scrambling the output classes of various fractions of the training data. This signature can be used to indicate a good (or bad) match between the complexity of the classifier and the complexity of the data and hence to improve the predictive ...
