Psychophysical and behavioral characteristics of olfactory adaptation.
Sensory adaptation allows organisms to reach behavioral equilibrium with the ambient environment and respond primarily to changes in stimulation. Given its functional significance, it is not surprising that adaptation in the olfactory system exhibits many of the same characteristics as adaptation in other sensory systems, including vision. Repeated or prolonged exposure to an odorant typically ...
متن کاملA novel psychophysical method for estimating the time course of olfactory rapid adaptation in humans.
In this presentation, we describe a novel method for estimating the onset time course of psychophysical odor adaptation in human observers. The method employs stimulus conditions derived from an analogous stimulus paradigm in audition. To test this procedure, we used liquid-dilution olfactometry to estimate 2-bottle discrimination thresholds for brief (600 ms) presentations of vanilla odor; 17 ...

15 صفحه اولCharacteristics of human corneal psychophysical channels.
PURPOSE To characterize human corneal psychophysical channels. METHODS Twenty subjects participated in this study. A Belmonte pneumatic esthesiometer was used to deliver stimuli, and the ascending method of limits and the method of constant stimuli were used to estimate thresholds. Sensation was characterized for different stimuli. Corneal mechanical and chemical thresholds were measured at d...
متن کاملPsychophysical characteristics of the premenstrual period.
Aim of this study was to investigate psychophysical characteristics of the premenstrual period in regard to the period following menstruation.
