Concluding Remarks: Wherever the Holy Spirit Resides, there is Freedom. 330 $aTalking with God examines the neuroscience of belief and belief change related to prayer. It puts forward a model based on neuroscience and theology to understand how God speaks to us individually and inspires us through the human capacities for language and imagination. Offering a fresh, integrated perspective for those who struggle with the dissonance between their experience in the physical world and a healing spiritual life, this work navigates a path to reconcile religious spirituality with science. It also sheds light on an integrated view of science and religious belief, accepting the physicality of consciousness while allowing for spirituality in the form of divine inspiration. Talking with God is an original academic contribution to the field of science and religion and an indispensable read for researchers and readers interested in the concept of belief and belief change from a neuroscientific perspective. 410 0$aNew Approaches to the Scientific Study of Religion,$x2367-3508 ;$v18 606 $aReligion and science 606 $aCognitive science 606 $aReligion and sociology 606 $aReligion and Sciences 606 $aCognitive Science of Religion 606 $aSociology of Religion 615 0$aReligion and science. 615 0$aCognitive science. 615 0$aReligion and sociology. 615 14$aReligion and Sciences. 615 24$aCognitive Science of Religion. 615 24$aSociology of Religion. 676 $a201.65 700 $aJohnson$b Paul E$0144987 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911018761703321 996 $aTalking with God$94413616 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05557nam 22007094a 450 001 9911019253003321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a9786610741236 010 $a9781280741234 010 $a1280741236 010 $a9780470869253 010 $a0470869259 010 $a9780470869246 010 $a0470869240 035 $a(CKB)1000000000356016 035 $a(EBL)284488 035 $a(OCoLC)166396206 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000219637 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11189824 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000219637 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10247746 035 $a(PQKB)10176819 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC284488 035 $a(Perlego)2765719 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000356016 100 $a20060222d2006 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aPerceptual audio evaluation $etheory, method and application /$fSren Bech, Nick Zacharov 210 $aChichester, England ;$aHoboken, NJ $cJohn Wiley & Sons$dc2006 215 $a1 online resource (464 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a9780470869239 311 08$a0470869232 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p. 389-434) and index. 327 $aPerceptual Audio Evaluation-Theory, Method and Application; Contents; Preface; Organisation of the Book; Acknowledgments; 1 Introduction; 1.1 Motivation for Listening Tests; 1.2 Role of Standardisation; 1.3 Role of Predictive Models; I Experimental Considerations; 2 Definition of Research Question and Hypothesis; 2.1 Principle of Empiricism; 2.2 Principle of Rationalism; 2.3 Other Principles of Scientific Argumentation; 2.3.1 Probabilistic Reasoning; 2.3.2 Argumentum ad Hominem; 2.3.3 Conclusion by Analogy; 2.4 Summary; 3 Fundamentals of Experimentation; 4 Quantification of Impression 327 $a4.1 Response Attribute4.1.1 Perceptual Measurements; 4.1.2 Affective Measurements; 4.2 Response Format; 4.2.1 Direct Scaling; 4.2.2 Indirect Scaling; 4.2.3 Selection of an Appropriate Scaling Procedure; 4.2.4 Context and Bias Effects; 4.2.5 Other Bias Effects; 4.3 Overview of Process; 5 Experimental Variables; 5.1 Signal; 5.1.1 Signal Category; 5.1.2 Recording Technique, Storage and Encoding; 5.1.3 Time Domain Characteristics; 5.1.4 Spectral Characteristics; 5.1.5 Spatial Characteristics; 5.1.6 Reference Signals; 5.2 Reproduction System; 5.3 Listening Room; 5.4 Subject Considerations 327 $a5.4.1 Categorisation and Applicability5.4.2 Listening Panels; 5.4.3 Subject Selection; 5.4.4 Training and Monitoring; 6 Statistics; 6.1 Statistical Experimental Design; 6.2 Statistical Analysis; 6.2.1 Classification of Data Type; 6.2.2 Levels of Analysis; 6.2.3 Descriptive Level; 6.2.4 Inferential Level; 6.2.5 Statistical Checklist; II Technical Considerations; 7 Electroacoustic Considerations; 7.1 Listening Rooms; 7.1.1 IEC 60268-13 Listening Rooms; 7.1.2 ITU-R Recommendation BS.1116-1 Listening Rooms; 7.1.3 EBU 3276 Listening Rooms; 7.1.4 General Characteristics; 7.2 Listening Booths 327 $a7.3 Other Spaces7.4 Listener and Loudspeaker Positioning; 7.4.1 Monophonic Reproduction; 7.4.2 Stereophonic Reproduction; 7.4.3 Multichannel Reproduction; 7.4.4 Separate Bass Loudspeakers; 7.4.5 Listener Position; 7.5 Accompanying Picture; 7.6 Commonly Encountered Problems; 7.7 Electrical Considerations; 8 Calibration; 8.1 Level Calibration; 8.1.1 Level Calibration Methods; 8.1.2 Level Metric Selection; 8.1.3 Preferred Listening Levels; 8.1.4 Reference Reproduction Levels; 8.2 Loudspeaker Calibration; 8.2.1 Level Calibration; 8.3 Headphone Calibration; 8.3.1 Headphone Types 327 $a8.3.2 Ear Measurement Points8.3.3 Headphone Measurement; 8.3.4 Target Frequency Response; 8.3.5 Level Calibration; 9 Test Planning, Administration and Reporting; 9.1 Planning; 9.1.1 Experimental Planning; 9.1.2 Logistic Considerations; 9.1.3 Ethical Considerations; 9.2 Administration; 9.2.1 Subject Matters; 9.2.2 Subject Familiarisation; 9.2.3 Listening Test Software; 9.3 Reporting; III Applications; 10 Commonly Encountered Experimental Paradigms; 10.1 Standards; 10.1.1 ITU-T Recommendation P.800 Methods; 10.1.2 ITU-R Recommendation BS.1116-1; 10.1.3 ITU-R Recommendation BS.1534-1 327 $aIV Appendices 330 $aAs audio and telecommunication technologies develop, there is an increasing need to evaluate the technical and perceptual performance of these innovations. A growing number of new technologies (e.g. low bit-rate coding) are based on specific properties of the auditory system, which are often highly non-linear. This means that the auditory quality of such systems cannot be measured by traditional physical measures (such as distortion, frequency response etc.), but only by perceptual evaluations in the form of listening tests.
