2. 1. Semantic Framing of Speech : Emotional and Topical Cues in Perception of Poorly Specified Speech

   Author : Björn Lidestam; Björn Lyxell; Staffan Hygge; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Speech perception; speechreading; facial expressions; priming; phonemes; semantics; lipreading; auditory perception; cognition; paralinguistics; emotional content; Läppavläsning; Psychology; Psykologi;

   Abstract : The general aim of this thesis was to test the effects of paralinguistic (emotional) and prior contextual (topical) cues on perception of poorly specified visual, auditory, and audiovisual speech. The specific purposes were to (1) examine if facially displayed emotions can facilitate speechreading performance; (2) to study the mechanism for such facilitation; (3) to map information-processing factors that are involved in processing of poorly specified speech; and (4) to present a comprehensive conceptual framework for speech perception, with specification of the signal being considered.

4. 2. The perception of actions and interactions : And the importance of context

   Author : Joshua Juvrud; Gustaf Gredebäck; Denis Mareschal; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; action understanding; action perception; motion; perception; context; environment; eye-tracking; pupil dilation; Psychology; Psykologi;

   Abstract : The perception of actions and interactions is a dynamic process linked with perceptual processes, the internal and external states of the individual, prior experiences, and the immediate environment. Given these differential contexts, it is very likely there are differences in how infants perceive, interpret, and respond to actions. READ MORE

5. 3. Perception of rolling noise

   Author : Alice Hoffmann; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Auralization; Rolling Noise; Perception; Tyre Road Noise; Psychoacoustics;

   Abstract : Due to improvements on combustion-engines and electric-engines for cars, tyre noisehas become the prominent noise source at low and medium speeds. Models existthat simulate the noise produced by a rolling tyre, as do models that auralize differenttraffic situations from a basic data set. READ MORE

6. 4. Emotional Influences on Auditory Perception and Attention

   Author : Erkin Asutay; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; change deafness; auditory-induced emotion; conditioning; core affect; auditory spatial attention; auditory perception; dot-probe; attention; emotion;

   Abstract : The auditory perception is a fundamental part of our interactions with and experience of the external environment. We receive considerable amount of information from our surroundings through sounds. The auditory system takes care of this continuous flow of information in a seemingly effortless manner. READ MORE

7. 5. AURALIZATION, PERCEPTION AND DETECTION OF TYRE–ROAD NOISE

   Author : Alice Hoffmann; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Perception; Psychoacoustics; Rolling Noise; Traffic Detection; Reaction Time; Auralization; Tyre Road Noise;

   Abstract : Due to improvements in combustion engines and electric engines for cars, tyre noise has become the prominent noise source at low and medium speeds. Models exist that simulate the noise produced by a rolling tyre, as do models that auralize specific traffic situations from a basic data set. READ MORE
