From Science Daily The sounds were kept at a moderate volume of 65 decibels—about the same loudness as a conversation in a bar or city traffic—and they couldn’t be heard by the parent birds. From Science Magazine “Saviors” revisits the production approach of the so-called “loudness ...
the association of meaning – should be introduced (e.g. Blauert and Jekosch, 1997; Jekosch, 2004). In this chapter, the term product sound experience will be used, because it is a more general concept (related to the emotional, semantic, and sensorial experience), and because the term ...
The equal loudness contours (see chapter 1) increase the complexity of the meaning of the disparity. It follows that matching amplifier gains is fruitless (e.g. for A-B testing) until the frequency responses are matched to a greater accuracy, ideally at least three times better (in ...
The focus is on evaluating cross-modal commutativity (as in Eqs. 3 and 4), but two other conditions resulting from Narens’ (1996) theory are also investigated in a cross-modal paradigm: The monotonicity of the adjustments, meaning that for p > q, a p-times production will yield a grea...
