Temporal attention affects contrast response function by response gain

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2023
Orienting attention to a specific point in time has been shown to improve the contrast sensitivity at the attended time point and impair it earlier or later.

Determining the Minimal Clinically Important Difference of the 40‐Item Smell Identification Test in People With Cystic Fibrosis

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and olfactory dysfunction (OD) are highly prevalent among people with cystic fibrosis (PwCF) and negatively impact quality of life. The 40‐item Smell Identification Test (SIT) is widely used to assess psychophysical olfaction, but a CF‐specific minimal clinically important difference (MCID) has not been ...

The functional role of spatial anisotropies in ensemble perception

BMC Biology
Background The human brain can rapidly represent sets of similar stimuli by their ensemble summary statistics, like the average orientation or size. Classic models assume that ensemble statistics are computed by integrating all elements with equal weight.

Psychophysics and the judgment of price: judging complex objects on a non-physical dimension elicits sequential effects like those in perceptual tasks [PDF]

, 2009
When participants in psychophysical experiments are asked to estimate or identify stimuli which differ on a single physical dimension, their judgments are influenced by the local experimental context — the item presented and judgment made on the ...

On the factors causing processing difficulty of multiple-scene displays [PDF]

, 2016
Multiplex viewing of static or dynamic scenes is an increasing feature of screen media. Most existing multiplex experiments have examined detection across increasing scene numbers, but currently no systematic evaluation of the factors that might produce ...

Visual Hypersensitivity as a Transdiagnostic Marker of Surgical Pain Response in Arthritis and Chronic Pain Syndromes

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Nociplastic pain is pain primarily driven by the central nervous system and, unlike nociceptive pain conditions, is thought to be refractory to peripherally directed therapies. Nociplastic pain is also associated with hypersensitivity to painful and other sensory stimuli (such as visual stimuli). Nonpainful sensory measures have not been well

Spectral tuning and after-effects in neural entrainment

Behavioral and Brain Functions
Neural entrainment has become a popular technique to non-invasively manipulate brain rhythms via external, periodic stimulation. However, there is still debate regarding its underlying mechanisms and effects on brain activity.

Annoyance Penalty Model for Steady-State Broadband Noise with Varying Spectra

Applied Sciences
Noise regulations often apply penalties (e.g., +5 dB) to A-weighted equivalent sound pressure levels (LAeq [dB]) to account for increased annoyance from tonal or impulsive features.

Psychophysics Phenomenologized? Sensation and Decision in Visual Motion Perception

Phenomenology and Mind, 2016
Experimental phenomenology and psychophysics are two rather different approaches to the study of perception, and rely on first-person descriptions and third-person measurements of the percept, respectively.

Interval Timing Is Altered in Male Nrxn1+/− Mice: A Model of Autism Spectrum Disorder

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is characterized by impaired social interactions and communication, and increased repetitive and stereotypical behavior. Neuroimaging shows functional abnormalities in brain areas involved in temporal processing in autistic individuals, and they also show deficits in interval timing.
