Adaptive memory representations of musical tempo and pitch
2009
Recent studies showed that the perception of extremely shifted versions of familiar pieces of music affects judgements about the original tempo and pitch. This paper aims to give an overview on musical adaptation effects (MAEs) for musical tempo and pitch. The focus is set on the questions if the recently found MAEs are generally comparable between the tempo and the pitch domain, and if they can be found to the same extent. In a series of eight empirical studies (N = 288, mean age = 26, SD = 8.6, 78 % female participants) the influence of extremely shifted versions (tempo-accelerated or pitch-shifted) of audio signals on memory representations was tested. Within this paper the focus will be…
Cómo crear una actividad H5P de juego de memoria en el Aula Virtual
2022
En este videotutorial se muestra cómo crear una actividad H5P de juego de memoria (memory game) en el Aula Virtual (Moodle 3.11). Este trabajo forma parte del Proyecto de Innovación Docente Multimedia learning objects in Moodle: Sustainable Development Goals (Ref: UV-SFPIE_PID-1640789) financiado por el Vicerrectorado de Ocupación y Programas Formativos de la Universitat de València en el curso académico 2021/2022.
Structure and dynamics in amorphous tellurium and Te-n clusters: A density functional study
2012
Density functional/molecular dynamics simulations have been performed on amorphous tellurium (a meltquenched sample of 343 atoms at 300 K) and on Te clusters with up to 16 atoms. The former extend our calculations on liquid Te at 560, 625, 722, and 970 K [Phys. Rev. B 81, 094202 (2010)]. We discuss trends in structures (including those of other group-16 elements), electronic densities of states, and vibration frequencies. Chain structures are common in S and Se, but the chains in amorphous Te are short, and branching sites with threefold-coordinated atoms are common. The energy difference between two- and threefold local coordination depends sensitively on the exchange-correlation functiona…

Inattentional deafness under dynamic musical conditions
2009
While inattentional blindness is a modern classic in attention and perception research, analogous phenomena of inattentional deafness are less well-known. In music, inattentional deafness has never been demonstrated under controlled experimental conditions, despite of indirect evidence for related effects. We tested inattentional deafness with real music in both musicians and non-musicians. Participants listened to the first 1’50” of Richard Strauss’ Thus Spake Zarathustra, with the experimental group having the task of counting the number of tympani beats and the control group just listening. The unexpected event was an e-guitar solo during the last 20s of this sequence. In Study 1, among …
Saint Agnes of Rome, the Pope and the “Purpuresque Pavo”: Memory Issues of the Apse Mosaic of Santa Agnese fuori le mura (625-638)
2018
The theme of memory is at the heart of apse mosaic of Santa Agnese fuori le mura. It’s a visual discourse about a roman martyr linked to the founder of new basilica and the “purpuresque pavo”. With the offering of this mosaics, the pope Honorius honours Saint Agnes’s memory. Honorius reaches to blend in a complex system of commemoration. Some close links are forged between the pope and the roman martyr. A true locus memoriae was established on the Via Nomentana since the middle of the IVth century. In the dedicatory inscription, the “purpuresque pavo” reminds the sacrifice of Christ, the martyrdom of Saint Agnes and the resurrection of the Elect. Thus, Honorius left an indelible mark in Rom…
The role of religious institutions in the process of reconciliation and peacebuilding : a case study of Bosnia and Herzegovina (Ahmići, Trusina and B…
2020
Bosnia and Herzegovina is a young, post-conflict and ethnically divided country in Europe. It is well known for being the scene of a conflict centred on religious divisions. For the researcher, this raises a number of interesting questions. What is the role of religious institutions in conflict and peacebuilding? Why is religion politicised? Can religious dialogue be perceived as a factor in the process of reconciling opposing ethnic communities; in this case, Serbs, Croats and Bosniaks? A section of this article is devoted to the stories of survivors from Bosniak, Croatian and Serbian families1. Each of these three ethnic groups suffered during the massacres in Ahmići, Trusina and Bradina,…
The Light Side of Passwords : Turning Motivation from the Extrinsic to the Intrinsic
2019
There are many good and bad aspects to password authentication. They are mostly without cost, securing many accounts and systems, and allowing users access from anywhere in the world. However, passwords can elicit dark side phenomena, including security technostress; with many users feeling negatively towards them, as they struggle to cope with the sheer numbers required in their everyday lives. Much research has attempted to understand users’ interactions with passwords, examining the trade-off between security, memorability, user convenience, and suggesting techniques to manage them better. However, users continue to struggle. Many studies have shown that users are more concerned with goa…
