Quantifying supra-threshold sensory deficits in listeners with normal hearing thresholds
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2014There is growing suspicion that some listeners with normal-hearing thresholds may be suffering from a specific form of sensory deficit—a loss of afferent auditory nerve fibers. We believe such deficits manifest behaviorally in conditions where perception depends upon precise spectro-temporal coding of supra-threshold sound. In our lab, we find striking

Thresholds for Fufu Sensory Properties
Fufu, a staple food in West Africa, is highly valued for its texture, flavor, and color—attributes that significantly influence consumer acceptability. This study aimed to determine the threshold levels of key fufu sensory attributes using a combination of Quantitative Descriptive Analysis (QDA), instrumental texture and color measurements, and ...CHIJIOKE, UGO +19 more

Apparent Fluctuations of a Sensory Threshold
Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1955An account is given of a method for the nearly continuous recording of sensory thresholds and other psycho-physical variables. Its application to the difference-threshold for sound-intensity is described. It is found that this threshold, so recorded, shows irregular fluctuations in time, excursions of up to 100 per cent, being commonly present.

Efficient estimation of sensory thresholds with ML-PEST
Spatial Vision, 1997A set of C and C+2 routines are described that allow the efficient estimation of sensory thresholds in psychophysical experiments using a maximum-likelihood staircase procedure. They have been used effectively in visual, auditory, gustatory, and olfactory psychophysics.

Acupuncture modulates facial warm sensory thresholds.
Journal of orofacial pain, 2011To assess the effects of four- and six-point acupuncture on facial sensory detection thresholds to thermal and electrical stimuli.Ten healthy volunteers underwent four-point acupuncture at ST6 and LI4 bilaterally for 15 minutes. A further 10 subjects underwent six-point acupuncture by adding needling at ST2 bilaterally.

Comments on “Sensory Thresholds and Response Bias”
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1964Auditory-detection data presented by Norman [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 35, 1432 (1963)] are shown to be compatible with the continuous model of signal-detectability theory and not to require the assumption of a low threshold.
