Psychophysical Laws and the Superorganism [PDF]
AbstractThrough theoretical analysis, we show how a superorganism may react to stimulus variations according to psychophysical laws observed in humans and other animals. We investigate an empirically-motivated honeybee house-hunting model, which describes a value-sensitive decision process over potential nest-sites, at the level of the colony.

Memory model of information transmitted in absolute judgment [PDF]
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the popular “information transmitted” interpretation of absolute judgments, and to provide an alternative interpretation if one is needed.

Complementarity in Psychophysics [PDF]
Besides the application of the notion of complementarity to psychological and physical descriptions of the individual, this paper explores the possibility of defining complementary observables in the same phenomenal domain. Complementary emotional observables are defined from experimental data on experienced emotions reported by subjects who have been ...

Development of animal psychophysics technique for determining of hydrobios chemical sensitivity
The initial, intermediate and final version of techniques of animal psychophysics are presented. Their critical analysis and gradual modification eventually allowed to develop a version, which is adequate for determining the limits and laws of

The Historical Development of Easter-Southern Freight Rate Relationships [PDF]
A method for creating and presenting video-recorded synchronized audiovisual stimuli at a high frame rate-which would be highly useful for psychophysical studies on, for example, just-noticeable differences and gating-is presented.

PSYCHOPHYSICS OF REMEMBERING [PDF]
We present a new model of remembering in the context of conditional discrimination. For procedures such as delayed matching to sample, the effect of the sample stimuli at the time of remembering is represented by a pair of Thurstonian (normal) distributions of effective stimulus values.

The study shows an asymmetric connectivity between visual motion areas, with alpha travelling waves favouring left‐to‐right (thick red arrow) over right‐to‐left (thin blue arrow) communication. This asymmetry predicts a bias toward reporting leftward (higher number of red dots) over rightward (lower number of blue dots) motion direction, regardless of ...

Pruriception and neuronal coding in nociceptor subtypes in human and nonhuman primates
In humans, intradermal administration of β-alanine (ALA) and bovine adrenal medulla peptide 8–22 (BAM8-22) evokes the sensation of itch. Currently, it is unknown which human dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons express the receptors of these pruritogens ...

Treating Hearing Loss: From Cochlear Implantation to Gene Therapy
Cochlear implantation is the primary treatment for deafness, restoring functional hearing in over a million people. Recently, gene therapy has enabled biological hearing restoration in a small number of patients with OTOF‐related mutations. This perspective evaluates both approaches, concluding that cochlear implants will remain the standard for most ...
