recommendations! Published in 2021 at "Building and Environment"

DOI: 10.1016/j.buildenv.2021.107688

Abstract: Abstract To investigate the effect of augmenting natural sounds in noisy environments, an in-situ experiment was conducted using a mixed-reality head-mounted display (MR HMD). Two outdoor locations close to an expressway were selected for the… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2020 at "Current Biology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2020.05.071

Abstract: Summary Complex natural sounds, such as bird singing, people talking, or traffic noise, induce decodable fMRI activation patterns in early visual cortex of sighted blindfolded participants [1]. That is, early visual cortex receives non-visual and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroimage.2020.116558

Abstract: Humans can easily distinguish many sounds in the environment, but speech and music are uniquely important. Previous studies, mostly using fMRI, have identified separate regions of the brain that respond selectively for speech and music.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/10253890.2024.2402519

Abstract: Abstract The main aim of this review is to compare whether natural sounds or a quiet environment is more beneficial for alleviating stress. The results showed that there is a statistically significant difference between exposure… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/aud.0000000000001601

Abstract: The ability to monitor surrounding natural sounds and scenes is important for performing many activities in daily life and for overall well-being. Yet, unlike speech, perception of natural sounds and scenes is relatively understudied in… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2017 at "Royal Society Open Science"

DOI: 10.1098/rsos.170037

Abstract: Most humans now live in cities and their main experience of nature is through urban greenery. An increasing number of studies show the importance of urban green spaces for well-being, although most of them are… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2022 at "PLOS Computational Biology"

DOI: 10.1101/2022.04.12.488076

Abstract: Theories of efficient coding propose that the auditory system is optimized for the statistical structure of natural sounds, yet the transformations underlying optimal acoustic representations are not well understood. Using a database of natural sounds… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pbio.3003293

Abstract: Reconstruction of perceptual experiences from brain activity offers a unique window into how population neural responses represent sensory information. Although decoding visual content from functional MRI (fMRI) has seen significant success, reconstructing arbitrary sounds remains… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2022 at "Frontiers in Human Neuroscience"

DOI: 10.3389/fnhum.2022.949655

Abstract: Recently, researchers have expanded the investigation into attentional biases toward positive stimuli; however, few studies have examined attentional biases toward positive auditory information. In three experiments, the present study employed an emotional spatial cueing task… read more here.
