Journal ArticleDOI
New Who Guidelines for Community Noise
TL;DR: The Report considers noise sources and their measurement, adverse effects on health and noise management, whilst introducing a new set of recommendations and guideline values to take account of changes in knowledge and expectations over the past 20 years.

Tactile perception : Finger friction, surface roughness and perceived coarseness
Lisa Skedung,Katrin Danerlöv,Ulf Olofsson,Carl Michael Johannesson,Maiju Aikala,John Kettle,Martin Arvidsson,Birgitta Berglund,Mark W. Rutland +8 more
TL;DR: Finger friction measurements performed on a series of printing papers are evaluated to determine representativeness of a single individual as discussed by the authors, and results show occasionally large variations in friction co-...
Journal ArticleDOI
Adaptation and Recovery in Vibrotactile Perception
Ulf Berglund,Birgitta Berglund +1 more
TL;DR: Adaptation and recovery were studied under conditions of constant stimulation of sinusoidal vibration at three different intensity levels: 40, 47, and 54 db above threshold and it was found that the perceived intensity decreases exponentially with increased time of stimulation.

Psychological processing of odor mixtures
Journal ArticleDOI
Invariance of odor strength with sniff vigor: an olfactory analogue to size constancy.
TL;DR: There was an apparent contradiction between data and those on neural discharge rate that may be resolved by adopting an odor constancy model: When sniff intensity varies during the olfactory exploration of an odor source, information about the rate at which odorant molecules are established at the receptor site is combined with information about sniff vigor so that the resulting percept is of invariant odor strength.
