Looming sounds are perceived as faster than receding sounds
Each year thousands of people are killed by looming motor vehicles. Throughout our evolutionary history looming objects have posed a threat to survival and perceptual systems have evolved unique solutions to confront these environmental challenges. Vision provides an accurate representation of time-to-contact with a looming object and usually allows us to interact successfully with the object i...
متن کاملAuditory Neuroscience: The Salience of Looming Sounds
Sounds that move towards us have a greater biological salience than those that move away. Recent studies in human and non-human primates have demonstrated a perceptual and behavioural priority for such looming sounds that is also reflected in an asymmetric pattern of cortical activation.
متن کاملSex difference in subjective duration of looming and receding sounds.
Looming sounds (sounds increasing in intensity over time) are more salient than receding sounds (a looming sound reversed in time). For example, they are estimated as being longer, louder, and more changing in loudness than receding sounds. Some authors interpret the looming salience as evolutionarily adaptive, because it increases the margins of safety of the perceiver in the case of preparato...
متن کاملRhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) hear rising frequency sounds as looming.
Rising sound intensity provides an important cue for the detection of looming objects. Studies with humans indirectly suggest that rising pitch can also signal a looming object. This link between rising intensity and rising frequency is puzzling because no physical rise in frequency occurs when a sound source approaches. Putative explanations include (a) the idea that the loudness of sound depe...
متن کاملAdaptive sex differences in auditory motion perception: looming sounds are special.
In 4 experiments, the authors examined sex differences in audiospatial perception of sounds that moved toward and away from the listener. Experiment 1 showed that both men and women underestimated the time-to-arrival of full-cue looming sounds. However, this perceptual bias was significantly stronger among women than among men. In Experiment 2, listeners estimated the terminal distance of sound...
