Identification of novel, non-invasive, non-cognitive based markers of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and related dementias are a global priority. Growing evidence suggests that Alzheimer's pathology manifests in sensory association areas well before appearing in neural regions involved in higher-order cognitive functions, such as memory. Previous investigations have not comprehensively examined the interplay of sensory, cognitive, and motor dysfunction with relation to AD progression.

- Frieze patterns, commonly seen in architecture and ornamental design, were studied for their aesthetic appeal using experimental methods involving 39 undergraduates.
- In two experiments, participants rated various frieze types, with a preference for designs that were fully filled and exhibited clear global features and symmetries.
- Ultimately, friezes that incorporated horizontal symmetry were rated most beautifully, suggesting that this type of symmetry enhances perceived beauty due to its alignment with the overall orientation of the designs.
