Age-related hearing loss and behavioral measures of hearing sensitivity in adult zebrafish (Danio rerio)
Many teleost fish species have been used in hearing studies to investigate the ontogenetic changes of auditory structures and functions. Zebrafish (Danio rerio), a freshwater species with special hearing adaptations, has ... -
Children’s Conceptions of the Moral Standing of a Humanoid Robot of the Here and Now
Sophisticated humanoid robots have recently moved from the laboratory and research settings to the home environment. Some models are now marketed to families with children, and are designed to engage children in increasingly ... -

To cope with the multitude of stimuli in the world, our visual system selectively attends to the pertinent locations or features in our environment, and while not all available information is relevant, it is common at a ... -
Fitting psychometric functions to achromatic brightness matching data
In asymmetric brightness matching procedure, one of two target regions is set by the experimenter at a fixed luminance (the reference}. This reference, with its fixed luminance and fixed relationship to the surrounding ... -
Individual Differences in Second-Language Reading Skill: Understanding the Role of Cross-Linguistic Interactions
Despite substantial evidence demonstrating the existence of cross-linguistic interactions during second-language (L2) use, current models of L2 reading still lack an emphasis on the role of this unique predictor. The goal ... -
Partial independence of brightness induction and brown inducton suggests a two-stage model for brightness induction
Bright contexts surrounding achromatic stimuli generally induce perceptual darkness in those targets. In yellowish targets, such contexts also induce a qualitative brownness. This raises the question whether brownness ... -
The Impact of Forecast Inconsistency On User Trust
For high impact weather events, forecasts often start days in advance. Meteorologists believe that consistency among subsequent forecasts is important to user trust and can therefore be reluctant to make changes when newer, ... -
