If one dimension of sound is manipulated in a way that suggests a particular rhythmic organization, does perception of other dimensions change in ways that are consistent with the same rhythmic organization? When subjects were asked to judge or adjust intensities of tones, rhythmic manipulations of pitch structure changed the perception of intensity. When subjects were asked to judge timing, rhythmic manipulations of intensity had a similar effect. Timing manipulations did not have an effect on judgments of pitch. The results indicate that temporal structure as a whole is more accessible than the individual physical manipulations that give rise to that structure. It may be concluded that the temporal structure itself, rather than pitches, intensities, and durations in isolation, is a perceptual object.

The role of non-diatonic chords in perception of harmony Atalay, Nart Bedin; Tekman, Hasan Gürkan; Department of Cognitive Sciences (2007) The perceptual reality of the music theoretical relation between the Neapolitan chord and the dominant; and the secondary dominant chord and its diatonic associate was investigated within the chord priming paradigm. In Experiment 1, expectation towards the dominant chord after the Neapolitan chord was observed in Turkish musicians and non-musicians with piano timbre. In Experiment 2, expectation towards the dominant chord after the Neapolitan chord was observed in European musicians but not in European non-...
Effects of voice familiarity on auditory distance perception Demirkaplan, Özgen; Hacıhabiboğlu, Hüseyin; Department of Cognitive Sciences (2017) Auditory distance perception is a multidimensional phenomenon. Familiarity with the sound source is known to have an important effect on the distance perception as one of the cognitive cues. An auditory distance perception experiment to assess the effects of interpersonal familiarity on auditory distance perception is reported in this article. The subjective experiment involves a binaural listening experiment where different source distances between 0.5 and 16 meters were simulated. The participants are 12 ...
Visual object representations: effects of feature frequency and similarity Eren Kanat, Selda; Hohenberger, Annette Edeltraud; Department of Cognitive Sciences (2011) The effects of feature frequency and similarity on object recognition have been examined through behavioral experiments, and a model of the formation of visual object representations and old/new recognition has been proposed. A number of experiments were conducted to test the hypothesis that frequency and similarity of object features affect the old/new responses to test stimuli in a later recognition task. In the first experiment, when the feature frequencies are controlled, there was a significant increas...
Effects of kind and amount of cognitive load and duration on prospective time estimation Bıyık Sarı, Fatma; Hohenberger, Annette Edeltraud; Department of Cognitive Sciences (2015) The estimation of temporal intervals is influenced by characteristics of a secondary task carried out during those intervals. Different kinds of cognitive load (e.g., memory load, attentional demand) and different amounts of load (low, high) of the secondary tasks modulate time estimation. Increase in the amount of cognitive load decreases time estimation. According to the Attentional Gate Model this is because the more attention is allocated to the secondary task, the less attention is left for the primary...
Modelling sound source localization under precedence effect using multivariate Gaussian mixtures Hacıhabiboğlu, Hüseyin (2002-10-10) The precedence effect refers to the property of the human auditory system that enables accurate localization of sound sources where many interfering echoes of the original signal are also present. Perception of the elevation, azimuth, and distance of sound sources are affected in the presence of an echo. The multivariate Gaussian mixture model proposed in this paper combines azimuth, elevation and distance perception, and provides a general framework for mode...
