The effect of dynamic range compression on the psychoacoustic quality and loudness of commercial music [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
It is common practice for music productions to be mastered with the aim of increasing the perceived loudness for the listener, allowing one record to stand out from another by delivering an immediate impact and intensity.

Relative Risk Aversion: A Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Economic Surveys, Volume 39, Issue 5, Page 2315-2333, December 2025.
Abstract Estimates of relative risk aversion vary widely, but no study has attempted to quantitatively trace the sources of the variation. We collect 1021 estimates from 92 studies that use the consumption Euler equation to measure relative risk aversion and that disentangle it from intertemporal substitution. We show that calibrations of risk aversion

Pitch Class and Envelope Effects in the Tritone Paradox Are Mediated by Differently Pronounced Frequency Preference Regions

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2018
Shepard tones (octave complex tones) are well defined in pitch chroma but are ambiguous in pitch height. Pitch direction judgments of Shepard tones depend on the clockwise distance of the pitch classes on the pitch class circle, indicating the proximity ...

Frame Theory for Signal Processing in Psychoacoustics

open access: yes, 2016
This review chapter aims to strengthen the link between frame theory and signal processing tasks in psychoacoustics. On the one side, the basic concepts of frame theory are presented and some proofs are provided to explain those concepts in some detail ...

A psychoacoustic "NofM"-type speech coding strategy for cochlear implants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We describe a new signal processing technique for cochlear implants using a psychoacoustic-masking model. The technique is based on the principle of a so-called "NofM" strategy.

Inter‐Stimulus‐Interval Dependence in Auditory Cortex Reflects Perceptual Organization of Streams Under Informational Masking

open access: yesPsychophysiology, Volume 62, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The perceptual saliency of a regular sound sequence embedded into a well‐chosen multi‐tone‐masker background fluctuates despite the absence of change in the physical stimulus. When such tone streams are perceived, each tone of the stream evokes a negative‐going response referred to as awareness‐related negativity (ARN).

An Adaptation Level Theory of tinnitus audibility

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2012
Models of tinnitus suggest roles for auditory, attention and emotional networks in tinnitus perception. A model of tinnitus audibility based on Helson’s (1964) Adaptation Level Theory (ALT) is hypothesized to explain the relationship between tinnitus ...

Psychoacoustic Considerations in Surround Sound with Height [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper presents recent research findings in the psychoacoustics of 3D multichannel sound recording and rendering. The addition of height channels in new reproduction formats such as Auro-3D, Dolby Atmos and 22.2, etc. enhances the perceived spatial

Let's stop measuring animal sound frequencies in hertz

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 11, Page 2545-2551, November 2025.
Abstract Research on the function and evolution of animal sounds typically analyses sound frequency on a linear scale (Hz), despite the perception and modulation of sound frequency by animals being better described with an equal‐ratios scale (logHz). Using a linear frequency scale causes bias in analyses, and distorts the visual representation of sound

Testing the Sound Quality of Acoustic Vacuum Tube Amplifier

open access: yesArchives of Acoustics, 2008
The study presents analysis of basic electrical parameters and sound quality of two acoustic amplifiers: an acoustic vacuum tube amplifier and a transistor amplifier. Computer-aided measurement methods have been used through the tests.
