How Long Does it Take to Identify Everyday Sounds?

چکیده
Previous studies of alarm design have concluded that the faster a mental representation of the cause of the alarm is activated, the quicker the adapted reaction. In order to select sounds that are quick to identify , an experiment was carried out using a gated stimulus paradigm with 117 everyday sounds. Almost half of the sounds were identified in less than 150 ms, including both classical alarms and sounds from other categories of everyday sounds. Thus it should possible to identify acoustic properties of each category of alarms within an integrated alarm system in order to improve discrimination among them.

It is thus somewhat surprising that the results of most studies of auditory sensory memory show that acoustic details, such as th...

متن کاملWhat in the World Do We Hear? An Ecological Approach to Auditory Event Perception
Everyday listening is the experience of hearing events in the world rather than sounds per se. In this paper, I take an ecological approach to everyday listening in order to overcome constraints on its study implied by more traditional approaches. In particular, I am concerned with developing a new framework for describing sound in terms of audible source attributes. An examination of the conti...
متن کاملVocal Imitations of Non-Vocal Sounds
Imitative behaviors are widespread in humans, in particular whenever two persons communicate and interact. Several tokens of spoken languages (onomatopoeias, ideophones, and phonesthemes) also display different degrees of iconicity between the sound of a word and what it refers to. Thus, it probably comes at no surprise that human speakers use a lot of imitative vocalizations and gestures when ...
