Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of stimulus repetition rates on the auditory brainstem response (ABR) to Level-Specific (LS) CE-Chirp and click stimuli at multiple intensity levels in normal-hearing adults. Method A repeated-measure study design was used on 13 normal-hearing adults. ABRs were acquired from the study participants using LS CE-Chirp and click stimuli at four stimulus repetition rates (19.1, 33.3, 61.1, and 81.1 Hz) and four intensity levels (80, 60, 40, and 20 dB nHL). The ABR test was stopped at 40-nV residual noise level. Results High-stimulus repetition rates caused the ABR latencies to be longer and have reduced amplitudes in both ABR to LS CE-Chirp and click stimuli. The ABR to LS CE-Chirp Wave I, III, and V amplitudes were larger than ABR to click in almost all the stimulus repetition rates. However, there were no differences in the number of averages required to reach the stopping criterion between ABR to LS CE-Chirp and click stimulus, and between high-stimulus repetition rates and low-stimulus repetition rates. Conclusion The LS CE-Chirp at standard low-stimulus repetition rates can be used to elicit ABR for both neurodiagnostic and threshold seeking procedure.

Introduction: Infantry is a physically demanding trade that is associated with elevated rates of musculoskeletal injury. A 17-week longitudinal intervention assessed the effect of a progressive increase in load carriage mass and sprint-intensity intervals on physical performance, physical complaints, medical encounters, physical activity and sleep in infantry trainees.

Methods: 91 infantry trainees from 2 separate platoons, randomly assigned as control (CON) or experimental (EXP), provided written voluntary consent.

False Memories of Familiar Faces.

Exp Psychol

January 2025

Department of Psychology, Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, LA, USA.

Article Synopsis
  • Prior familiarity with faces, especially when they are known US celebrities, enhances recognition and source memory compared to unfamiliar European celebrities.
  • In two experiments, both familiar and unfamiliar faces showed improved recognition rates with repetition during learning, but participants were more accurate with familiar faces.
  • Experiment 2 revealed that while familiar faces were recognized more frequently, they were also more prone to being incorrectly identified as previously seen when paired with new backgrounds, suggesting complexities in face memory recall.

High-dimensional photon states (qudits) are pivotal to enhance the information capacity, noise robustness, and data rates of quantum communications. Time-bin entangled qudits are promising candidates for implementing high-dimensional quantum communications over optical fiber networks with processing rates approaching those of classical telecommunications. However, their use is hindered by phase instability, timing inaccuracy, and low scalability of interferometric schemes needed for time-bin processing.
