A first investigation into the effectiveness of Tactons [PDF]
, 2005 This paper reports two experiments relating to the design of Tactons (or tactile icons). The first experiment investigated perception of vibro-tactile "roughness" (created using amplitude modulated sinusoids), and the results indicated that roughness ...

The perception of rhythm in language [PDF]
Cognition, 1994 The orthography of English has a very simple basis for establishing where words in written texts begin and end: both before and also after every word are empty spaces and this demarcation surely helps the reader comprehend. In a spoken text, however, as presented to a hearer, such explicit segmentation cues are rarely to be found; little pauses after ...

Alpha-band rhythms in visual task performance: phase-locking by rhythmic sensory stimulation [PDF]
, 2012 Oscillations are an important aspect of neuronal activity. Interestingly, oscillatory patterns are also observed in behaviour, such as in visual performance measures after the presentation of a brief sensory event in the visual or another modality. These

The Philosophical Significance of Wittgenstein’s Experiments on Rhythm, Cambridge 1912–13 [PDF]
, 2020 Wittgenstein’s experiments on rhythm, conducted in Charles Myers’s laboratory in Cambridge during the years 1912–13, are his earliest recorded engagement in thinking about music, not just appreciating it, and philosophizing by means of musical thinking ...

Auditory perception dominates in motor rhythm reproduction
Perception, 2022 It is commonly agreed that vision is more sensitive to spatial information, while audition is more sensitive to temporal information. When both visual and auditory information are available simultaneously, the modality appropriateness hypothesis predicts that, depending on the task, the most appropriate (i.e., reliable) modality dominates perception ...

Subjective pain perception mediated by alpha rhythms [PDF]
Biological Psychology, 2015 Suppression of spontaneous alpha oscillatory activities, interpreted as cortical excitability, was observed in response to both transient and tonic painful stimuli. The changes of alpha rhythms induced by pain could be modulated by painful sensory inputs, experimental tasks, and top-down cognitive regulations such as attention. The temporal and spatial

The evolutionary biology of dance without frills [PDF]
, 2016 Recently psychologists have taken up the question of whether dance is reliant on unique human adaptations, or whether it is rooted in neural and cognitive mechanisms shared with other species 1, 2. In its full cultural complexity, human dance clearly has

Correlates of linguistic rhythm in the speech signal [PDF]
, 1999 Spoken languages have been classified by linguists according to their rhythmic properties, and psycholinguists have relied on this classification to account for infants capacity to discriminate languages.

Visual Recovery Reflects Cortical MeCP2 Sensitivity in Rett Syndrome
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Rett syndrome (RTT) is a devastating neurodevelopmental disorder with developmental regression affecting motor, sensory, and cognitive functions. Sensory disruptions contribute to the complex behavioral and cognitive difficulties and represent an important target for therapeutic interventions.

Temporal and Motor Representation of Rhythm in Fronto-Parietal Cortical Areas: An fMRI Study. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 When sounds occur with temporally structured patterns, we can feel a rhythm. To memorize a rhythm, perception of its temporal patterns and organization of them into a hierarchically structured sequence are necessary.
