Recent studies have supported the safety and efficacy of psychedelic therapy for mood disorders addiction. Music is considered an important component in treatment model, but little empirical research has been done to examine magnitude nature its therapeutic role. The present study assessed influence music on acute experience clinical outcomes therapy. Semi-structured interviews inquired about different ways which influenced 19 patients undergoing with psilocybin treatment-resistant...
Despite widespread evidence that nonverbal components of human speech (e.g., voice pitch) communicate information about physical attributes vocalizers and listeners can judge traits such as strength body size from speech, few studies have examined the communicative functions vocalizations (such roars, screams, grunts laughs). Critically, no previous study has yet to examine acoustic correlates in vocalisations, including nor identified reliable vocal cues speech. In addition being less...
While evidence suggests that pain cries produced by human babies and other mammal infants communicate intensity, whether the vocalisations of adults also encode which acoustic characteristics influence listeners' perceptions, remains unexplored. Here, we investigated how trained actors communicated comparing nonverbal expressing different levels intensity (mild, moderate severe). We then performed playback experiments to examine vocalisers successfully listeners, were responsible for...
Although animal vocalizations and human speech are known to communicate physical formidability, no previous study has examined whether listeners can assess the strength or body size of vocalizers relative their own, either from nonverbal vocalizations. Here, although men tended underestimate women's women overestimate men's, judged height aggressive roars accurately. For example, when judging roars, male accurately identified who were substantially stronger than themselves in 88% trials,...
Fundamental frequency ( F 0, perceived as voice pitch) predicts sex and age, hormonal status, mating success a range of social traits, thus functions an important biosocial marker in modal speech. Yet, the role 0 human nonverbal vocalizations remains unclear, given considerable variability across call types, it is not known whether cues to vocalizer attributes are shared speech vocalizations. Here, using corpus vocal sounds from 51 men women, we examined individual differences retained...
Justice-oriented climate activism is proliferating. Many scholars aspire to deliver research that supports activism. However, measures of impact for evaluation and funding purposes place little weight on the use by activists. Here we consider how academics academia might effectively support enable We report outcomes from a series online deliberative workshops involving both activists several European countries. The were facilitated create space discussion, sharing experiences development...
