The subjective movement threshold (SMT)

Unconscious Processing at the Subjective Threshold - Semantic Comprehension?

Validating the Use of Vignettes for Subjective Threshold Scales

Validating the Use of Vignettes for Subjective Threshold Scales Comparing self-assessed indicators of subjective outcomes such as health, work disability, political efficacy, job satisfaction, etc. across countries or socio-economic groups is often hampered by the fact that different groups use systematically different response scales. Anchoring vignettes have been introduced as an effective to...

The visual perception of objective motion and subjective movement.

The perception of motion in the visual field, when recognized as a psychological problem instead of something self-evident, is often taken to present the same kind of problem as the perception of color or of form. Movement is thought to be simply one of the characteristics of an object, and the only question is "how do we see it?" Actually, the problem cuts across many of the unanswered questio...

Voluntary initiation of movement: multifunctional integration of subjective agency

This paper investigates subjective agency (SA) as a special type of efficacious action consciousness. Our central claims are, firstly, that SA is a conscious act of voluntarily initiating bodily motion. Secondly, we argue that SA is a case of multifunctional integration of behavioral functions being analogous to multisensory integration of sensory modalities. This is based on new perspectives o...

Subjective Evaluation for HMM-Based Speech-To-Lip Movement Synthesis

An audio-visual intelligibility score is generally used as an evaluation measure in visual speech synthesis. Especially an intelligibility score of talking heads represents accuracy of facial models[1][2]. The facial models has two stages such as construction of real faces and realization of dynamical human-like motions. We focus on lip movement synthesis from input acoustic speech to realize d...
