A subliminal message is presented below the threshold of conscious awareness, making it difficult for the recipient to detect or process it consciously. These messages are often used in advertising, media, and psychology to influence attitudes or behaviors without the person being aware of it.


What is the Point at which a person can detect a stimulus 50 percent of time it is presented?

The point at which a person can detect a stimulus 50% of the time it is presented is known as the absolute threshold. This threshold represents the minimum intensity of a stimulus needed to detect it half of the time. It is often used in psychology to study perception and sensory processing.


Can you laugh without smiling?

The perception of sound depends on what?

The perception of sound depends on the vibrations of sound waves traveling through the air or another medium, which are detected by our ears and converted into electrical signals that our brain interprets as sound. Additionally, factors such as sound frequency, intensity, and duration can also influence how we perceive sound.


Weber's law is relevant to an understanding of?

Weber's law is relevant to an understanding of how people perceive changes in stimuli, such as light, sound, or weight. It states that the just-noticeable difference between two stimuli is proportional to the magnitude of the stimuli, rather than their absolute value. This law helps explain why we may not notice small changes in a stimulus but can easily detect larger changes.

Can you tell where a spacific sound came from if you're blindfolded?

Human hearing, when it is normal, can allow a blindfolded person to detect the general direction a sound is coming from. The brain can detect the slight time difference between when the sound is detected by one ear and when that sound is detected by the other ear. It should also be noted that at lower sound frequency, human hearing is less able to accurately detect the direction of a sound. That's why a single subwoofer speaker can be used in a sound system while pairs of speakers are the norm for recreating stereo or 3D sound.


Can you tell where the sound comes from when your blindfolded?

Yes, if both of your ears are free, then you should be able to detect the direction from which a sound is coming. Your brain detects direction of sound by the minute difference in volume of sound and the slight delay in sound reaching one ear if your head is turned away from the sound source. ; - If one of your ears were fully plugged, you would not be able to detect the direction of the sound without turning your head. If the sound is more or less continuous, however, you would turn your head and by the differences in volume, determine the sound source. ; - By the way, if the sound source is moving, you should also be able to detect the direction it is moving the the rising or falling pitch of the sound. To test this out, stand by a railway crossing when a train is approaching while blowing it's whistle. The pitch of the whistle will change as the train approaches and again as it retreats from your position. Does the pitch rise or fall as the train approaches? ; - This Is The Hypothesis But, You Can Use It As An Abstract ;

What makes the softest sound in the world?

The softest sound in the world is generally considered to be the sound of a single molecule vibrating. This sound is so faint that it is on the threshold of human auditory perception and is difficult to detect even with the most sensitive equipment.


What is a faint sound?

A sound in such a low whisper that you can barely hear it.


What does vibration have do with sound?

That's what sound IS ... What we think of as sound are those vibrations that we can detect (with our ears).


Can people tell where sound comes from when they are blind or blindfolded?

Most likely, unless, of course, if they are also deaf and/or have something in their ears.


What is the range of sound frequencies that the human ear can detect?

The human ear can detect sound frequencies ranging from about 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz.


Can sonar detect any object?

Sonar can generally detect most things, and is commonly used in aviation An example of something that it cannot detect is the Stealth Fighter and the Stealth Bomber. They both have paint that helps deflect sonar rays, and the Fighter has very rigid edges that makes it almost undetectable.
