Effects of Ambient and Display Lighting Color on Risk‐Taking Behavior, Perceived Emotional States, and Visual Quality of Indoor Environment

open access: yesColor Research &Application, EarlyView.
In a digital risk‐taking test, participants inflated a balloon to increase earned points at the risk of popping under different display and ambient lighting conditions. ABSTRACT Lighting from architectural fixtures and screens can have impacts beyond visual perception, such as occupants' cognitive functions and emotional states. Despite the ubiquity of

Time to guide: evidence for delayed attentional guidance in contextual cueing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Contextual cueing experiments show that, when displays are repeated, reaction times (RTs) to find a target decrease over time even when the observers are not aware of the repetition.

Measuring Implicit Approach‐Avoidance Tendencies Using Self‐Depicting Body Pictures in Female Adults With Bulimia Nervosa, High Body Dissatisfaction and Healthy Controls

open access: yesInternational Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Body dissatisfaction is an important factor for the etiology and maintenance of eating disorders such as bulimia nervosa (BN). At the behavioral level, body dissatisfaction often manifests itself in excessive body‐related avoidance, thought to act as a negative reinforcer.

Why Not Study Polytonal Psychophysics?

open access: yesEmpirical Musicology Review, 2007
The relative consonance/dissonance of 2-tone intervals is well understood both experimentally and theoretically and provides a strong foundation for explaining why diatonic scales or their subsets are used in most musical cultures.

Perception of global image contrast involves transparent spatial filtering and the integration and suppression of local contrasts (not RMS contrast) [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2017
When adjusting the contrast setting on a television set, we experience a perceptual change in the global image contrast. But how is that statistic computed?

Interpretation of absolute judgments using information theory: channel capacity or memory capacity? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Shannon’s information theory has been a popular component of first-order cybernetics. It quantifies information transmitted in terms of the number of times a sent symbol is received as itself, or as another possible symbol.

Visual marking and change blindness : moving occluders and transient masks neutralize shape changes to ignored objects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Visual search efficiency improves by presenting (previewing) one set of distractors before the target and remaining distractor items (D. G. Watson & G. W. Humphreys, 1997).

An Investigation of Coiled Tubing Operators' Risk Perception Using Signal Detection Theory

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Fig. 1. Receivers cannot directly observe the source's output. Information must be processed through personal perception and reasoning, leading to biased decisions due to individual differences. Fig. 2. Experienced operators (5+ years) apply more lenient criteria than less experienced ones during tasks, though their safety systems show conservative ...

The Role of Response Bias in Perceptual Learning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Sensory judgments improve with practice. Such perceptual learning is often thought to reflect an increase in perceptual sensitivity. However, it may also represent a decrease in response bias, with unpracticed observers acting in part on a priori hunches
