  1. 1. Measuring Complexity of Built Environments : The impact of traffic lights and load of traffic levels on how drivers perceive stress

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Periandros Papamarkos; [2020]
    Keywords : Driver behavior; Stress perception; Driving simulation; Built Environment; Virtual scenarios; ;

    Abstract : To understand which factors affect the perception of stress while driving is interesting since it would help us to get closer to comprehending how the street network design can avoid putting stress on the drivers. Earlier research has measured drivers’ perception of safety under different street conditions by using video clips of real street environments. READ MORE

  3. 2. Processing of task-irrelevant sounds while performing a visual task : A study of auditory steady-state evoked potentials

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Psykologiska institutionen

    Author : Jenny Arctaedius; [2020]
    Keywords : Attention; Auditory Processing; Perceptual load; ASSRs; Filtering; EEG;

    Abstract : Perceptual capacity and selection in attention have for long been an interest in cognitive science, with early theories of early selection to late selection. Hearing is an important subject to investigate when it comes to attention and early auditory processing can be investigated by using auditory steady state responses (ASSRs). READ MORE

  4. 3. The Contribution of Eye Tracking to Quality of Experience Assessment of 360-degree video

    University essay from RISE - Research Institutes of Sweden (2017-2019)/Acreo

    Author : Anouk van Kasteren; [2019]
    Keywords : QoE; Quality of Experience; 360-video; Visual Attention; Quality Perception; Eye-Tracing; Perceptual load; Selective Attention; Cybersickness;

    Abstract : The research domain on the Quality of Experience (QoE) of 2D video streaming has been well established. However, a new video format is emerging and gaining popularity and availability: VR 360-degree video. READ MORE

  5. 4. Does working memory capacity correlate with processing of auditory distractors under low versus high visual load?

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Psykologiska institutionen

    Author : Rasmus Skarp; [2018]
    Keywords : working memory capacity; perceptual load; processing; ASSR; auditory steady state responses; EEG;

    Abstract : Individuals with high working memory capacity (WMC) appear to be particularly good at focusing their attention (McCabe, Roediger, McDaniel, Balota, & Hambrick, 2010). Therefore, we studied the correlation between WMC and the ability to suppress neurological activity from a task-irrelevant stimulus. READ MORE

  6. 5. Is Visual Stimuli Neighboring Attended Stimuli Suppressedin High Perceptual Load? : A Steady State Evoked Potential Study

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Linn Bergström; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Perceptual load theory, together with the surround-suppression model suggest that stimulus surrounding attended stimuli is suppressed, especially if perceptual load is high. This study attempts to map surround-suppression using electroencephalography to measure neural activity related to suppression at four surrounding locations (2°, 3°, 4° and 6° from fixation).
