Fabric Attractiveness Using Four Sensory Evaluators
Fibres & Textiles in Eastern Europe, 2023 Abstract All senses elicit emotional responses to goods, services, and the environment. They also play an important role in the process of fashion design and its evaluation. This research is a continuation of several preliminary studies we conducted online to define three attractive and three unattractive colors, textures, smells ...

SENSORY ATTRACTIVENESS OF LOCAL SMOKED BACONS [PDF]
Modern Management Review, 2018 The aim of the article was to evaluate the sensory attractiveness of local smoked bacon made from organic and traditional pig fattening feedstock. The research material consisted of three assortments of smoked bacon produced according to the same traditional recipe.

Buckwheat: an underutilized crop with attractive sensory qualities and health benefits
Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition, 2023 The pseudocereal buckwheat is one of the ancient domesticated crops. The aim of the present review was to outline the potential of buckwheat as an agricultural crop and brings studies on buckwheat into a new larger perspective combining current knowledge in agricultural history and practice, nutritional and sensory properties, as well as possible ...

Cross-modal sensory compensation increases mosquito attraction to humans
Science Advances, 2023 SUMMARY Sensory compensation is a process that allows individuals with a loss of one sense, for instance hearing or vision, to adapt to changes in their sensory abilities. Where this phenomenon has been observed, there is enhanced perception by another sense to compensate for deficiency of the lost sense.

The Sensory Circuitry for Sexual Attraction in C. elegans Males [PDF]
Current Biology, 2007 Why do males and females behave differently? Sexually dimorphic behaviors could arise from sex-specific neurons or by the modification of circuits present in both sexes. C. elegans males exhibit different behaviors than hermaphrodites. Although there is a single class of sex-specific sensory neurons in the head of males, most of their neurons are part ...

Attractive and repulsive effects of sensory history concurrently shape visual perception
BMC Biology, 2022 Abstract Background Sequential effects of environmental stimuli are ubiquitous in most behavioral tasks involving magnitude estimation, memory, decision making, and emotion. The human visual system exploits continuity in the visual environment, which induces two contrasting perceptual phenomena

Mental simulation across sensory modalities predicts attractiveness of food concepts.
Journal of Experimental Psychology: Applied, 2021 Concepts are grounded in mental simulation of sensory information, but the exact role it plays in everyday cognition is unknown. Here we investigate its role in an important conceptual domain relevant for everyday behavior—food. We conducted two pre-registered studies to test whether multimodal mental simulation is linked to attractiveness of food ...

Perception as a Dynamical Sensori-Motor Attraction Basin [PDF]
, 2005 In this paper, we propose a formal definition of the perception as a behavioral dynamical attraction basin. The perception is built from the integration of the sensori-motor flow. Psychological considerations and robotic experiments on an embodied “intelligent” system are provided to show how this definition can satisfy both psychologist and robotician

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2022 The aesthetic preferences of potential mates have driven the evolution of a baffling diversity of elaborate ornaments. Which fitness benefit—if any—choosers gain from expressing such preferences is controversial, however. Here, we simulate the evolution of preferences for multiple ornament types (e.g., “Fisherian,” “handicap,” and “indicator” ornaments)

Laminin terminates the Netrin/DCC mediated attraction of vagal sensory axons [PDF]
Developmental Neurobiology, 2008 AbstractVagal sensory axons navigate to specific sites in the bowel during fetal life. Netrin/deleted in colorectal cancer (DCC) were found to mediate the attraction of vagal sensory axons to the fetal mouse gut. We tested the hypothesis that laminin‐111 can reverse the chemoattractive effects of netrin and act as a stop signal for vagal sensory axons.
