Research on Music teachers’ attitude in the Secondary classroom towards musical audition and the way it is approached in curricular textbooks
2014
La musica esta mas presente que nunca en la vida de los jovenes que cursan la Educacion Secundaria Obligatoria. La educacion musical que reciben debe abordar una autentica sensibilizacion hacia todo tipo de musica, preparandolos para poder elegir libremente y con criterio sus preferencias musicales, contribuyendo asi a que adquieran una verdadera formacion integral, finalidad ultima de la educacion. Los objetivos de la investigacion responden al interes de los autores por conocer, por una parte, la utilizacion que los profesores hacen de la audicion musical en sus clases, los planteamientos metodologicos, las estrategias didacticas que utilizan y el repertorio que proponen y, por otra, el u…
The Time Course of Emotional Responses to Music
2005
Two empirical studies investigate the time course of emotional responses to music. In the first one, musically trained and untrained listeners were required to listen to 27 musical excerpts and to group those that conveyed a similar emotional meaning. In one condition, the excerpts were 25 seconds long on average. In the other condition, excerpts were as short as 1 second. The groupings were then transformed into a matrix of emotional dissimilarity that was analyzed with multidimensional scaling methods (MDS). We compared the outcome of these analyses for the 25-s and 1-s duration conditions. In the second study, we presented musical excerpts of increasing duration, varying from 250 to 20 s…
Audiologic profile of OSAS and simple snoring patients: the effect of chronic nocturnal intermittent hypoxia on auditory function
2016
The objective of this work was to study the effect of nocturnal intermittent hypoxia on auditory function of simple snoring patients and subjects affected by OSAS; we compared the audiologic profile with the severity of OSAS to detect early signs of cochlear damage. One hundred-sixty patients underwent overnight polysomnography, micro-otoscopy, multi-frequency audiometry, acufenometry, TEOAE recording and d-ROMs test. All subjects were divided in four groups, based on presence/absence of AHI (simple snoring without OSAS, mild OSAS, moderate OSAS, severe OSAS). Sixty (37.5 %) patients were not affected by OSAS, 58 (36.25 %) presented a mild OSAS, 18 (11.25 %) a moderate OSAS and 24 (15 %) a …
Wearing glasses to hear differently? Aftereffects of visuomanual prismatic adaptation on auditory perception
2022
Sensorimotor plasticity is defined as the ability to produce an appropriate motor response face to environmental or bodily changes. The classical experimental paradigm to study sensorimotor plasticity is prism adaptation, which consists of pointing to visual targets while wearing prisms that shift the visual field laterally or vertically. Its aftereffects are not restricted to sensorimotor behavior but extend to sensorial modalities not directly involved during prism exposition, such as audition. There exists a mental representation of auditory frequencies in which low auditory frequencies are associated with the left part of space and high auditory frequencies with the right part of space.…
Rapid nucleus-scale reorganization of chromatin in neurons enables transcriptional adaptation for memory consolidation
2020
AbstractThe interphase nucleus is functionally organized in active and repressed territories defining the transcriptional status of the cell. However, it remains poorly understood how the nuclear architecture of neurons adapts in response to behaviorally relevant stimuli that trigger fast alterations in gene expression patterns. Imaging of fluorescently tagged nucleosomes revealed that pharmacological manipulation of neuronal activity in vitro and auditory cued fear conditioning in vivo induce nucleus-scale restructuring of chromatin within minutes. Furthermore, the acquisition of auditory fear memory is impaired after infusion of a drug into auditory cortex which blocks chromatin reorganiz…
Practitioner views of goodwill accounting under US GAAP
2020
PurposeAccounting standards for goodwill may intensify the agency conflict. Since auditors evaluate intangible asset valuations, this study examines to what extent being an auditor (including Big 4 auditors) and being female as indicators of professional skepticism and conservatism predict accounting professionals' critical views of goodwill accounting under US GAAP.Design/methodology/approachStatistical analyses of a survey of accounting professionals in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States.FindingsThe respondents' views are dispersed from trust in GAAP to views reflecting management opportunism in goodwill accounting. While being an auditor (including Big 4 auditors) does not…
La representación mediática de Arabia Saudita y el wahabismo en Televisión Española (1956-2015)
2015
Estudio sobre la representación de la imagen de Arabia Saudita y el wahabismo en los informativos de Televisión Española en el periodo 1956 a 2015. La investigación aborda la forma en que el medio audiovisual público generalista más veterano de España construye los discursos referidos a este país y cuales son los factores políticos, económicos y religiosos que lo condicionan. Basándose en análisis cuantitativos y cualitativos se expone el tratamiento diferencial mediático que tiene Arabia Saudita y cómo se construye en determinados periodos legitimando los intereses políticos y económicos de España y por extensión de Occidente. El trabajo estadístico realizado en el archivo de TVE muestra l…
La identificación auditiva de los intervalos armónicos musicales:: una propuesta de innovación didáctica basada en la metodología observacional
2014
En el presente artículo se expone un estudio cuyo objetivo es detectar y analizar las dificultades que presentan los estudiantes al identificar auditivamente los intervalos armónicos musicales usando su estrategia habitual. Para llevar a cabo esta investigación se ha utilizado una metodología observacional. Una muestra intencionada de 29 alumnos (entre 11 y 15 años de edad) de lenguaje musical de primer curso de grado profesional pertenecientes al Conservatorio de Música de Girona accedieron voluntariamente a ser filmados en sesiones individuales durante la realización de un test auditivo formado por intervalos armónicos de 3m, 3M, 6m y 6M. Ante la presentación de cada uno de ellos, y de ac…
Le solo imprévu : l?atelier d?improvisation comme lieu d?échanges entre cultures d?audition
2021
Starting from sociologist Anne-Marie Green?s idea of ?common space?, and from Hans Robert Hauss? reception theory, the improvisation workshop is thought to be a way of transforming the practices of reception, in order to modify the nature of the culture of listening of each listener. Four research axis are, then, proposed, from the validation of the personal experience of the participants to the reception of the instant?s surprise as a factor of education, including the research of communicational tools specific to reception of music, capable of captivating the listeners with the original aspects of the unknown musical territories.
