{"title":"The 3D Sound Power of Immersion Processing and Psychophysiological Effects of Binaural versus Stereo Audio Stories","authors":"Emma Rodero, Isabel Rodríguez-de-Dios","doi":"10.1080/15213269.2023.2281545","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/15213269.2023.2281545","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACTMany people are listening to fiction stories in podcasts and audiobooks. Some techniques, such as 3D or binaural sound, might improve the listeners’ sensory experience in this kind of format. However, few audio productions are produced with binaural sound, and research about their effects on cognitive processing is scarce. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the impact of binaural sound in audio stories compared to their stereo versions on the listeners’ cognitive processing and physiological responses. Fifty participants listened to two stories produced in two versions: binaural and stereo, and they assessed enjoyment, engagement, and imagery while their physiological responses were measured (heart rate and electrodermal activity). Also, they performed a recognition test. The results showed that the binaural version achieved higher narrative engagement, enjoyment, imagery, and information recognition than the stereo stories. The psychophysiological responses indicated the highest attention and arousal in binaural stories. Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1. In this study, we focus on binaural audio reproduction, which aims to create an immersive auditory sensation by recreating spatial orientation with sound (Geronazzo et al., Citation2019). In contrast, according to Lane et al. (Citation1998), binaural beats refer to two tones of different frequencies presented simultaneously, one to each ear, so that the listener perceives a single tone that varies in amplitude. It has been suggested that binaural beats might affect psychomotor performance and mood (Lane et al., Citation1998).2. It is important to note that several studies have used the concepts of binaural and 3D audio interchangeably (e.g., Paterson & Lee, Citation2022). In this study, we analyze the effect of binaural audio, which we previously defined as a form of audio reproduction that aims to create an immersive auditory sensation by recreating spatial orientation with sound (Geronazzo et al., Citation2019). However, 3D audio has also been defined as “realistic sound that simulates the real listening experience” (Shin et al., Citation2019, p. 81). Other authors have distinguished between these two terms by saying that binaural audio is the simplest form of 3D audio (Boren, Citation2018). Due to the need for more agreement on the terminology and the scarcity of previous research on this topic, we review studies using binaural audio or 3D audio.3. Some authors have used narrative engagement and narrative transportation as similar or related concepts (e.g., Gebbers et al., Citation2017; Green, Citation2021; Tchernev et al., Citation2023) or interchangeably (e.g., Cohen et al., Citation2023; Samur et al., Citation2021). Other authors consider narrative transportation and narrative engagement as two different dimensions of narrative involvement (e.g., Quintero Johnson & Sangalang, Citation2017).

Because of the gendered nature of both princesses and superheroes, it is possible that they represent a salient facet of children’s early gendered environments, and may be associated with other facets of gendered parenting. The aim of this study is twofold: (1) to categorize patterns of young children’s engagement with princess and superhero cultures using Latent Profile Analysis (LPA) and (2) to examine whether children’s profiles of engagement with princesses and superheroes are systematically associated with indicators of gendered parenting; approval of boy-typed and girl-typed play, parents’ implicit attitudes about gender, and parents use of gendered language with their children. Using a sample of 404 parent–child dyads, we completed a Latent Profile Analysis of children’s engagement with princesses and superheroes, identifying four profiles, Low Engagement, Princesses, Heroes, and High Engagement. Children’s gender was related to their profile of engagement, but indicators of gendered parenting were not predictive of children’s profile of princess/superhero engagement, apart from parent approval of girl-typed play. Finally, child gender did not moderate the relationship between indicators of gendered parenting and children’s profile of princess/superhero engagement.

Holt","doi":"10.1080/15213269.2023.2266680","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/15213269.2023.2266680","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACTIn this manuscript, three studies examined the effects of viewing situation comedies on attitudes toward Black Americans. Study 1 was a content analysis of sitcoms that had either predominately Black casts (PBC) or predominately White casts (PWC) and showcased interracial interaction. It is found that positive cross-racial interaction (interracial reciprocity) occurs in both types of shows but is more common with PBC sitcoms. Study 2 was a survey that found watching PBC sitcoms was associated with reduced prejudice, while watching PWC sitcoms was associated with increased prejudice. These effects were mediated by positive reciprocity expectations for Black Americans, as explicated by Bounded Generalized Reciprocity theory. Study 3 was an experiment that found exposure to increased scenes of interracial reciprocity in PBC was associated with less negative attitudes toward Black Americans through the mechanism of reduced negative reciprocity expectations. Overall, we found sitcoms are associated with activating racial prejudice. However, the direction of these beliefs is in part determined by if the casts of these shows are predominantly Black or White. Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.Notes1. More details for the sample selection in Study 1 can be found on OSF: https://osf.io/48swm/?view_only=d319459fa64d48eab6427010777de3b4.2. This decision was made due to research suggesting that racial and ethnic identity matter in the context of vicarious learning from interracial interaction in media (Kim & Harwood, Citation2020). The small number of participants reporting each racial identity aside from White made it difficult to statistically draw accurate conclusions about those groups. Rather than make unsubstantiated claims about individuals with those racial and ethnic identities, we opted to remove them from analysis. There were no substantive differences in the interpretation of results when only those who identified as White were included compared to when all people in the sample were included, across both studies with human subjects (Study 2 and Study 3).3. Our content analysis from Study 1 was used to choose the shows for Study 3; these shows were the only ones from that content analysis that all provided episodes with 0, 2, and 5 interracial reciprocity instances. No other combinations of shows allowed us to vary the number of reciprocity instances with precision while still having the manipulation of Black and White casts and stimulus sampling of multiple shows within the Black/White categories. Therefore, the choice to use these shows was practical and necessary. Future research may wish to determine whether more current shows would have similar effects.4. For conceptual clarity, the reciprocity manipulation is treated as a continuous predictor for this analysis. However, a version was also run where it was treated as a multicategorical variable in order to confirm the pattern of results.

This study explores how ESM use is informed by employees’ perceptions of the content these media convey. Specifically, this paper reports on a survey study (N = 619) to examine the relationship between negativity perceptions and ESM use, through pro-sharing norms and knowledge-sharing intentions. The findings indicate that negativity perceptions of online communication are met with avoidance responses by organizational members and are associated with low platform usage. This relationship is partially mediated by pro-sharing norms and knowledge-sharing intentions, such that negativity perceptions undermine pro-sharing norms and lower knowledge-sharing intention, ultimately reducing ESM use. The findings highlight a potential difference in the underlying psychological mechanisms related to negative media content in organizational environments compared to public and mass media environments. This study integrates media selection literature and media psychology perspectives to study technology adoption and expands our understanding of the potential barriers and drivers of platform use in organizational contexts.","PeriodicalId":47932,"journal":{"name":"Media Psychology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135854979","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite the persuasiveness of anger and misinformation on social media, little is known about how misinformation surges in power when users are exposed to misinformation-related anger appeals and/or misinformation-unrelated (i.e. ambient) anger. Employing two online experiments across different health contexts, the studies test mechanisms of anger appeals and their individual and combined effects on misinformation recall. Specifically, Study 1 (N = 210) examines the interaction between a misinformation-related anger appeal and issue relevance, illustrating that issue relevance increased the recall of emotion-neutral appeals but did not influence recall among those exposed to the misinformation-related anger appeal. Expanding on this finding, Study 2 (N = 400) investigates a three-way interaction between exposure to a misinformation-related anger appeal, ambient anger, and issue relevance. The findings underscore the role of ambient anger in contributing to misinformation recall for users with high issue relevance and those exposed to misinformation-relevant anger appeals. These results further highlight the complex and conditional influence of anger appeals on misinformation recall.

First, we examined how the portrayal of the protagonist’s behavior affects the reader’s identification with her. Participants read one of four narratives in which we manipulated the character’s usual behavior (abstract traits) and her behavior on a specific bad day (concrete states). As expected, when the character had positive traits but behaved unkindly in the negative situation, compared to the other conditions, the readers (N = 206) identified more strongly with her through the mediation of higher situational attributions, i.e. attributing the protagonist’s behavior more to the situation than to her traits. Then we examined the effect of identification on the readers’ concrete and abstract thoughts. We hypothesized and found that stronger identification with the character was related to increasingly more concrete thinking about the protagonist’s specific plans and reactions regarding the situation than abstract thinking about the protagonist’s life in general. Additionally, stronger identification was associated with more concrete thoughts about the readers themselves through the partial mediation of concrete thoughts about the character. These findings may reconcile previous inconsistent results about identification and have implications for narrative persuasion.","PeriodicalId":47932,"journal":{"name":"Media Psychology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136072481","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
