...Sensory thresholds or sensitivity might be affected or manipulated by either diminished frontal lobe capacity or frontal lobe stress (Woods et al. 2013) and through the manipulation of ambient sensory conditions within other sensory modalities (e....

...This finding is in line with the evidence that hyper-arousal from sensory stimulation can influence aspects of human visual perception [13,35]....

...Increases in arousal have been shown to: (1) modulate the responsiveness of neurons in the early mice visual system [33,34]; (2) facilitate attentional mechanisms in tasks requiring sustained performance [35]; (3) improve stereo as well as contrast sensitivity in humans [13]....

..., a higher level of arousal than in the normal awake state, induced by exposure to cold) can improve stereoacuity and contrast sensitivity [13], confirming that perceived emotions can potentiate the benefits of attention on sensory discrimination [14]....

...In the sensory domain, active and aroused behavioral states are associated with enhanced perceptual capabilities that can aid detection and processing of threats or other salient stimuli (Bennett et al., 2013; McGinley et al., 2015; Woods et al., 2013)....
