Audition function (observable entity) | The audition (hearing) function endows a person with the capacity to process auditory stimuli. The visual sensory function and visual perception function are specific types of visual functions. | | Inherent location | | NEW | new |
Auditory perception function (observable entity) | Auditory perception is a function that endows a person with the capacity to create mental representations of auditory stimuli (sounds). The realization of this function is the cognitive processing of sound and the phenomenological experience of hearing. | | Inherent location | | NEW | pending clarification |
Auditory sensory function (observable entity) | The auditory sensory function is a function that endows a person with the capacity to detect sound stimuli (specific types of energy), convert these stimuli into a neural signal, and transmit this signal to the brain for further processing. The realization of this function is transduction of energy into neural signals and the transmission of neural signals to the brain. | | Inherent location | | NEW | accepted |
