The role of the iconicity of sound within the multisensory environment

Haverkamp Michael

Vibrations in Physical Systems

2022

Vol. 33, nr 1

art. no. 2022106

The iconicity of perceived content includes all associative aspects that are intuitively attributed to the stimuli. Sound thus communicates information on the nature of its source. Associative content is essential for the fit of specific sounds in the total background and in the whole multisensory environment. Psychoacoustic parameters of sound contribute to the overall perceptual appearance of auditory elements, but iconicity and semantic content are determining the meaning of sound, which is most important to the listener. An objective iconicity analysis is introduced for the assessment of multisensory aspects of an environment. It is configured for the intuitive selection of appropriate images from a large dataset. In contrast to the common procedure of image-based soundscape analysis, the pictures refer to perceived single aspects, features of materials touched, functional aspects of processes, and emotions. It has successfully been applied to visual and tactile stimuli. Its expected benefit for sound evaluations is discussed.

The sequencing of adverbia clauses of time in academic English : Random forest modelling of conditional inference trees

Adverbial clauses of time are positioned either before or after their associated main clauses. This study aims to assess the importance of discourse-pragmatics and processing-related constraints on the positioning of adverbial clauses of time in research articles of applied linguistics written by authors for whom English is considered a native language. Previous research has revealed that the ordering is co-determined by various factors from the domains of semantics and discourse-pragmatics (bridging, iconicity, and subordinator) and language processing (deranking, length, and complexity). This research conducts a multifactorial analysis on the motivators of the positioning of adverbial clauses of time in 100 research articles of applied linguistics. The study will use a random forest of conditional inferencje trees as the statistical technique to measure the weights of the aforementioned variables. It was found that iconicity and bridging, chich are factors associated with discourse and semantics, are the two most salient predictors of clause ordering.
