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

Spatio-Temporal Analysis of Urban Acoustic Environments with Binaural Psycho-Acoustical Considerations for IoT-Based Applications

open access: yesSensors, 2018
Sound pleasantness or annoyance perceived in urban soundscapes is a major concern in environmental acoustics. Binaural psychoacoustic parameters are helpful to describe generic acoustic environments, as it is stated within the ISO 12913 framework.

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).

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

Higher‐pitched voices are perceived as financially trustworthy

open access: yesBritish Journal of Psychology, Volume 116, Issue 4, Page 1009-1027, November 2025.
Abstract Previous research is mixed as to whether listeners perceive higher‐ or lower‐pitched voices as more financially trustworthy. These mixed results may be owing to variation in the degree of risk implied in the scenarios used to measure perceptions of financial trustworthiness. I tested whether the degree of risk in the type of trust game used to

The Polish sentence test for speech intelligibility evaluations

open access: yesArchives of Acoustics, 2014
The main purpose of this study was to prepare Polish sentence tests for measuring speech intelligibility against an interfering noise. The tests were developed from meaningful sentences taken from everyday utterances, TV, literature etc.

Optimizing CI Systems for Better Recognition of Soft Speech —the Concept of Broad‐Range Mapping

open access: yesLaryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 10, Issue 5, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Objectives The individual mapping of cochlear implants (CIs) aims to optimize the user's speech understanding. Recent investigations have shown the importance of soft speech: (1) According to Datalog studies, a large proportion of speech components lies in the range below 60 dB, and (2) soft speech represents a separate category in CI outcome,

A Perceptionist’s View on Psychoacoustics

open access: yesArchives of Acoustics, 2013
Psychoacoustics is traditionally based on a world model that assumes a physical world existing independently of any observer – the so-called objective world.

Interference Pattern Caused by Bilateral Bone Conduction Stimulation Impairs Sound Localization

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 32, August 28, 2025.
This work explores how crosstalk‐induced wave interference affects bone conduction (BC) sound localization. Using a theoretical model, cadaveric vibrometry, and psychoacoustic tests, atypical BC lateralization patterns are revealed that contradict air conduction (AC) principles.

A unified conceptual model of immersive experience in extended reality

open access: yesComputers in Human Behavior Reports
The term ''immersion'' is frequently used to describe and evaluate technologies within the field of extended reality (XR), which encompasses virtual, augmented, and mixed reality.
