    conflict. The two observation I used were a checklist data and a field note data. Both data contained useful information to finalize my research questions: 1) what is the gender difference in peer conflict 2) what is the cause of the conflict 3) reaction to conflict 4) peer exclusion. Checklist Data During my observation, I collected a total of 14 conflicts for the one hour period I was at the ASI Children Center. The percentage of each gender group were 0% girls group, boy groups 64%, and mixed gender group 36%. In gender frequency boys tend to have more conflict than girls. The mean intensity was 1.71 with the range from 1-3 and the mean duration was 1.36 with the range of 1-2. The boys mean intensity is 1.14 and a duration of .86. Mixed gender’s mean intensity ranged from .57 and duration of .5. Regarding the gender pattern for conflict intensity and conflict duration, boy have the highest in intensity and duration. There are six categories conflict: physical provocation, verbal provocation, verbal disagreement, object/space struggle, disruptive…

    Virtual Barber Case Study

    Listening to the Virtual Barber, one hears sound moving around them as sound would in “real life”. How does this happen when the only sound is coming from headphones and not actually moving around? When you take the headphones out and listen to the same recording it sounds like two speakers and you lose the illusion (Schweizer, 2011). Spatial hearing consists of two main elements; interaural time differences and interaural intensity differences (Plack, 2004). With interaural intensity…

    Instruments utilize resonant frequencies to produce music; all instruments take advantage of this property of sound waves to produce clear, crisp, and definite notes. In the instance of the guitar, sounds are produced through plucking a string; the specific notes of which are called resonant frequencies, which permeate the physics of sound. These notes then trigger forced vibrations of the air in the guitar, and of the guitar itself, transmitting the sound waves around. Sound is not restricted…

    The Stapedius Contraction

    • 580 Words
    • 3 Pages

    describes the involuntary contraction of the stapedius tendon in response to high-intensity sound (Emanuel, 2009). An intricate neural network, receiving afferent input from the vestibulocochlear nerve and sending efferent output to the facial nerve, controls contraction (Emanuel, 2009). The reflex is intensity-dependent, as particular intensities cause the contraction. Once contracted, it lessens the vibrations traveling through the stapes footplate as it pulls the stapes away from the oval…

    of sound. Sound is a wave made of vibrations in the air. Waves can be measured in a range of different ways: by their amplitude, wavelength, frequency, speed, and, at times, their phase. Sound information is transmitted by the amplitude and frequency of the vibrations, where the amplitude is experienced as loudness and frequency as pitch. The vibration is started by some mechanical movement and this causes a vibration on the molecules next to the mechanical event. When these molecules vibrate,…

    Sound Waves in Music Intervals Introduction Mechanical Wave Sound is a mechanical wave. It has an original source that is a vibrating object. It travels in a medium through particle-to-particle interaction. Longitudinal Wave In a sound wave, the particles in the medium oscillate in a direction parallel to direction of energy transport. This results in compressions and rarefactions in the particles- Lower pressure causes molecules to expand into a large region of space called rarefactions, and…

    Do you ever hear your ears ring? Are they ringing now? If your answer is yes to either of those questions, then maybe you should take another look at the intensity of the volumes around you on a regular basis. If your answer was no, then your ears are probably very healthy. However, If you want to stay healthy or you’re trying to preserve what little hearing you have left, you may want to read the rest of this paper. Most people, mainly teenagers, with hearing loss are unaware of the damage…

    Acoustic reflexes are contractions of the stapedius muscle in the middle ear. This reflex occurs when a loud sound is presented to the ear causing the tympanic membrane to stiffen and cause a change in immittance (Martin & Clark, 2012). When measuring the acoustic reflex threshold, we are measuring the softest sound that can cause a reflex of the stapedius muscle as well as the duration of time needed for the reflex to decay. The reflex is presented as a deflection, or a curve/dip, on the…
