Age-Related Changes in the Perception of Emotions in Speech: Assessing Thresholds of Prosody and Semantics Recognition in Noise for Young and Older Adults

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Older adults process emotions in speech differently than do young adults. However, it is unclear whether these age-related changes impact all speech channels to the same extent, and whether they originate from a sensory or a cognitive source. The current

Age Differences in Orofacial Sensory Thresholds [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Dental Research, 2010
Declines in sensory functioning with aging are evident for many of the senses. In the present study, thresholds were determined for somatosensory (warming and cooling temperature, pain, touch, and two-point discrimination) and taste stimuli in 178 healthy individuals aged 20-89 yrs.

Cross-sensory facilitation reveals neural interactions between visual and tactile motion in humans

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2011
Many recent studies show that the human brain integrates information across the different senses and that stimuli of one sensory modality can enhance the perception of other modalities.

Stimulus-specific mechanisms of visual short-term memory [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
The retention of spatial information in visual short-term memory was assessed by measuring spatial frequency discrimination thresholds with a two-interval forced-choice task varying the time interval between the two gratings to be compared. The memory of

Quantitative sensory testing in children with sickle cell disease: additional insights and future possibilities. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Quantitative sensory testing (QST) is used in a variety of pain disorders to characterize pain and predict prognosis and response to specific therapies.

Detection thresholds of macaque otolith afferents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The vestibular system is our sixth sense and is important for spatial perception functions, yet the sensory detection and discrimination properties of vestibular neurons remain relatively unexplored.

In vivo genetic manipulation of inner ear connexin expression by bovine adeno-Associated viral vectors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We have previously shown that in vitro transduction with bovine adeno-associated viral (BAAV) vectors restores connexin expression and rescues gap junction coupling in cochlear organotypic cultures from connexin-deficient mice that are models DFNB1 ...

Agreeable smellers and sensitive neurotics--correlations among personality traits and sensory thresholds. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Correlations between personality traits and a wide range of sensory thresholds were examined. Participants (N = 124) completed a personality inventory (NEO-FFI) and underwent assessment of olfactory, trigeminal, tactile and gustatory detection thresholds,

Baroreceptor stimulation: Pain perception and sensory thresholds [PDF]

open access: yesBiological Psychology, 1994
Baroreceptor activity has been implicated in the modulation of pain. Sensory detection thresholds and pain ratings were measured in a group of 28 men during carotid baroreceptor manipulation with the PRES (phase-related external suction) neck suction technique.
