    A list of 'effects' that have been noticed in the field of psychology. [clarification needed] ... Word frequency effect;

  3. Sound symbolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_symbolism

    Sound symbolism is used in commerce for the names of products and even companies themselves. [20] For example, a car company may be interested in how to name their car to make it sound faster or stronger. Furthermore, sound symbolism can be used to create a meaningful relationship between a company's brand name and the brand mark itself.

  4. Hypersonic effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypersonic_effect

    It is a common understanding in psychoacoustics that the ear cannot respond to sounds at such high frequency via an air-conduction pathway, so one question that this research raised was: does the hypersonic effect occur via the "ordinary" route of sound travelling through the air passage in the ear, or in some other way?

  5. Neuronal noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuronal_noise

    Neuronal activity at the microscopic level has a stochastic character, with atomic collisions and agitation, that may be termed "noise." [4] While it isn't clear on what theoretical basis neuronal responses involved in perceptual processes can be segregated into a "neuronal noise" versus a "signal" component, and how such a proposed dichotomy could be corroborated empirically, a number of ...

  6. Image noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_noise

    For images at lower signal levels (higher ISO settings) where read noise (noise floor) is significant, more pixels within a given sensor area will make the image noisier if the per pixel read noise is the same. For example, the noise level produced by a Four Thirds sensor at ISO 800 is roughly equivalent to that produced by a full frame sensor ...

  7. Critical band - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_band

    As increasing the level makes the low frequency slope shallower, by increasing its amplitude, low frequencies mask high frequencies more than at a lower input level. The auditory filter can reduce the effects of a masker when listening to a signal in background noise using off-frequency listening.

  8. Colors of noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colors_of_noise

    Noise that has a frequency spectrum of predominantly zero power level over all frequencies except for a few narrow bands or spikes. Note: An example of black noise in a facsimile transmission system is the spectrum that might be obtained when scanning a black area in which there are a few random white spots. Thus, in the time domain, a few ...

  9. Gamma wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma_wave

    A gamma wave or gamma rhythm is a pattern of neural oscillation in humans with a frequency between 30 and 100 Hz, the 40 Hz point being of particular interest. [1] Gamma rhythms are correlated with large-scale brain network activity and cognitive phenomena such as working memory , attention , and perceptual grouping , and can be increased in ...
