Auditory Stimuli
The Kappa Effect also can be demonstrated by auditory stimuli to discuss the perceptual relation between space and time. “Increasing the distance between sound sources marking time intervals leads to a decrease of the perceived duration.” The kappa effect has been observed for auditory stimuli that move in space (think loudspeakers at different places in the room) in addition to frequency.

Famous quotes containing the word stimuli:
“Unable to create a meaningful life for itself, the personality takes its own revenge: from the lower depths comes a regressive form of spontaneity: raw animality forms a counterpoise to the meaningless stimuli and the vicarious life to which the ordinary man is conditioned. Getting spiritual nourishment from this chaos of events, sensations, and devious interpretations is the equivalent of trying to pick through a garbage pile for food.”
—Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)
