Hartnagel, David. "La perception de l'espace multisensoriel appréhendée par l'étude de la fusion visuo-auditive : les effets de la dissociation des référentiels spatiaux." Paris 8, 2007. http://octaviana.fr/document/135521491#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=0.
Full textFrames of reference dissociation effect on the multisensory space is estimated in a Visual-Auditory (VA) fusion task. Godfroy et al. (2003), showed that there is a symmetrical organization of the VA space relative to the mid sagittal plane. Spatial information is coded differently in visual and auditory sensory systems, eye-centred for vision, head-centred for audition. A first experiment shows a reference frame dissociation effect, VA fusion space is symmetrically organized relative to an intermediary axis inbetween head and eye position when fixation cross is laterally shifted. In a 2nd experiment in total darkness, this effect is also found. Hence, head and eye position for VA information displays need to be accounted for. To bypass this eye position effect, a third experiment investigates allocentric visual cues influence. Again, multisensory space perception still depends on the eye-in-head position. The dissociation of egocentric reference frames effect on VA fusion is robust and regular, visual cues provided by the environment are not so relevant. These results confirm that VA fusion is an integrative phenomenon; it depends on the spatial coding of each sensory modality. VA reference frame seems not to reflect an intermediate stage in a reference frame transformation from head-centred to eye-centred, but rather as electrophysiological data proposed (Snyder, 2005), an idiosyncratic representation of space

Full textOur research presents some ideas about composing musical spaces. This study includes the intentional use of the perceived sound qualities in sound construction, and, by the consequence, in musical composition. Our research is in the intersection between the sound as a physical phenomenon, the spatial sensations created by the auditory perception of some sound proprieties, and the musical composition of sound spaces. We develop the idea of a sound entity that we can compose from its microstructure to the macrostructure. We conceive it by means of an analogical thinking about the tangible world objects and the auditory sound sensations. We consider the ideas of volume, form and matter, positions and movements of the material objects. We used these ideas as metaphor to conceive sound entities integrated into and musical composed spaces. The conception of the sound entity as a group of heteroclite elements ; il make possible the conception of operational networks. The composer can use these networks for sound manipulations in his compositional work
Conty, Laurence. "De la perception de la direction du regard à la perception du contact visuel : études comportementales et électrophysiologiques chez l'Homme." Paris 8, 2008. http://octaviana.fr/document/140534822#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=0.
Full textIntuitively, eye contact is seen as an essential cue during social interactions. The empirical examination of gaze behaviour in human beings suggests that eye contact is a key of the development of social representations. This PhD thesis aims at determining whether direct gaze (that establishes eye contact with the subject) triggers particular perceptive processes and can be conceptualized as a natural category of social stimulus in human adult perception. This issue is tackled from the perspectives of cognitive neuroscience and social psychology. Within this framework, a category of social stimuli refers to three criteria: i) the perception of these stimuli must induce particular cognitive processes; ii) it must be associated to some specific cerebral markers; iii) it must induce automatic behavioural responses. The studies presented explore these three criteria successively, with behavioural and electrophysiological experiments. Overall, all the studies confirm the existence of processing asymmetries during the perception of direct versus averted gaze. These asymmetries result in prioritizing gaze contact processing in the competition for cognitive resources. Finally, our results concords with a model of the development of social abilities which postulates the existence of a cognitive module specialized in mutual attention, and they confirm that among all gaze directions, gaze contact constitute a special stimulus category

Full textMultiple Sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system associated with a wide array of symptoms including physical, cognitive, emotional and behavioral symptoms. Independently of behavioral manifestations as euphoria, denial of disability often linked to advanced MS, other more subtle behavioral changes are observed that may have consequences on the quality of social interactions. These behavioral changes are not necessarily related to cognitive deficits or adaptative parameters but could be also associated with social cognition alterations. Social cognition may rely partly on the integrity of white matter structures, which are the main site of damage related to MS. This work was designed to evaluate socio-cognitive skills of subjects with MS through three studies. The ability to attribute mental states to others and to recognize facial emotional expressions was investigated in different clinical forms of MS in relation with cognitive and psychological factors of this disease. The MS participants performed worse in tests of mental states attribution and emotion facial recognition to controls group even at the beginning of the disease, with and without cognitive deficits or mood disorders. These results provide evidence for deficits in social cognition in MS. With regards to consequences of these deficits on social interaction, it seems necessary to explore systematically theses abilities in order to anticipate social outcomes, as demonstrated in other neurological conditions (head trauma, dementias)
Follet, Brice. "Etude sur la dichotomie ambiant-focal du comportement oculomoteur dans la perception des scènes naturelles." Paris 8, 2012. http://octaviana.fr/document/178646946#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=0.
Full textThis work relies on the question of existence of two kinds of visual named ambient and focal. Document begins to present previous work at behavioral, physiological, oculometric and computational levels. Next, we expose our experimental approach and the obtained results. All experimental methodologies rely on oculomotor data with the aim to study ambient and focal aspects. We approach this problem in suggesting an automatic method to discriminate the two kinds of fixations contrary to previous studies. In a first step, this fixation clustering allows to reveal one relevant behavioral index to discriminate fixations. In a subsequent step, we observe that two kinds of fixations show distinct features on the spatial deployment in the visual scene. In a next step, we investigate the respective role of ambient and focal fixations in the perception across two different paradigms. Hypothesis suggesting focal fixations are specialized in a local perception of object and ambient fixations preferentially treat the global scene are validated. In a next step, we try to consider ambient and focal fixations to increase the ability of a saliency model to predict spatial deployment of fixations. The last step suggests a functional temporal synthesis and a global schema of ocular behavior

Full textThis thesis is a study of the relationship that time has with electronic and digital apparatus or machines. The concept of "machines that crystallize time" is applied to differenciate digital technologies from mechanic or thermodynamic ones. The definition of machines of crystallize time is based on a confrontation of bergson's theory of time (as developed by gilles deleuze) with the production of the first video artists for whom "video is time", such as nam june paik

Full textVerbal communication in route-finding is a way to study the relationship between space representation and language representation. We examine it through the interaction of twenty dyads made of blind young people, a guide and an explorer : one of them is familiar of the space and the other is not. They can communicate by cellulars. We analyse the dialogs at distance, in order to catch up the representation expressed in the dynamic of space and interaction. We identify critical competences between two very contrasted couples all over the route, and then we study in detail four critical episodes characterized by misunderstandings and their eventual solvings. Uncertainty, disagreement, and misunderstanding made respective conceptualizations of both partner accessible. The observed phenomena illustrate the complex gap existing between operatory invariants and language and how resources emerge to face problematic situations
Rainvillé-Delamare, Hugues. "La perception de l'esthétique et de la pensée du zen dans les textes d'art en France." Paris 8, 2003. http://octaviana.fr/document/18181322X#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=0.
Full textThat it is in the artistic mediums, scientific or advertising, one currently notes a renewed interest for Zen. Zen makes sell, Zen makes creative, inventive, gets wellbeing, Zen seems to be used for all. Does it act of a deformation in its interpretation by the prism of our European and northern American culture? Or reflection it an exact assimilation of the direction of Zen? The fact that since its origin Zen was associated the artistic activity can undoubtedly help us to include/understand the mechanisms which underlie its operation, and to thus enable us to know if the image that we have Zen reflects its reality, through various artistic activity like painting, poetry, the cinema, the theatre, the martial arts, the ceremony of the dry tea or the art of the garden. From these observations, one notes a misperception of Zen. On one hand it is perceived as fostering the spontaneous and chaotic aspect of artistic expression, and on other hand it is seen as a codified and a repeated spontaneous reflex behavior. However, the dual aspect of thought, be it learned or unlearned, verbal or spacial, is a mental process that does not work in opposition, but in synergy, through fluid movement, initiated by discarding preconceived notions through a continuous effort to reconfigure one’s mental representations

Full textIn this thesis I test the hypothesis as to which loanword adaptations result from an evaluation of acoustic distance between non-native structures and phonotactically legal native structures, i. E. From a process of perceptual assimilation. Two aspects of this process have been demonstrated: (a) the sensibility of online adaptations to the fine-grained phonetic detail of the source language, which was shown by testing the perception of French and English /n/-final words by Japanese speakers; (b) the sensibility of online adaptations to the presentation mode (auditif vs visual) of new non-native words, which was shown on the basis of online adaptations of English vowels by French speakers. Moreover, I have found evidence for a link between the presence of non-adaptations in the target language and the capacity of its speakers to correctly discriminate related contrasts in the source language. Finally, a model of perceptual adaptation of non-native structures is proposed
Szántó, Catherine. "Le Promeneur dans le jardin : de la promenade considérée comme acte esthétique : Regard sur les jardins de Versailles." Paris 8, 2009. http://octaviana.fr/document/152080066#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=0.
Full textRecently there has been a new awareness among garden historians of the importance of movement in shaping the experience of a garden. Indeed, the garden exists for its visitors only inasmuch as its spaces have been discovered, sensed, “lived”. The garden is the garden explored. Promenade – a leisurely walk with no other end than itself – is thus a privileged activity to study spatial experience. Despite historians' awareness of an itinerary through the gardens devised by Louis XIV himself, Versailles has hardly been studied as a place for promenade. In my thesis I look at the experiential potential of the gardens of Versailles by combining 17th century descriptions of promenades in the garden and a phenomenological description of spatial experience corroborated by recent physiological research on perception. Thus, our ability to move defines the structures of the spatio-temporal modes of „here” and „there”. Through the changes or continuity in specific sensory experiences that occur as we move, the garden offers the possibility for heightened experiences of ‘here’ – views, objects, spaces seen on axis - and ‘there’ – distant views and objects that appear reachable. But more subtly, the garden can accompany the transition from the fulfillment of being ‘here’ to the desire of going ‘there’ and thus enrich our motion itself. Space is here conceived not as a backdrop that we see as we move, but as an invitation to motion, as a spatial dialogue taking the shape of a promenade. The richness of this dialogue in Versailles comes from the complexity of the choices offered to the promeneur, allowing one to build through time a meaningful aesthetic experience of the garden

Full textThe digital 3D picture is essentially three-dimensional space. It is striking to note that most of the creations, thoughts and constructed for and in cyberspace are reduced to a flat picture at the time of distribution. Our working assumption is that access to the spatial distribution of digital works, made possible today with stereoscopy and interactions, radically transformed the perception of digital space. With 3D display, the "3D picture," became a cyberspace visible in three-dimensional. It leaves his status rigging tool, simulation or other storage media, and becomes an independent medium, with its own aesthetic and perceptual grammar. Display digital spaces => empowerment of cyberspace. Stereoscopy applied to cyberspace seems to herald the emergence of a new media creation. It is no longer a picture media as the photograph, film or video, but a space medium. Her purpose is to examine the assumption: Are we in front of the appearance of a space medium? To support this hypothesis, this thesis examines the technologies and fields of application development f this future medium. Finally, the emergence of a new medium has always been accompanied by changes of perception of the world. In light of current experiments, this brief seeks to understand the aesthetic and sociological implications of this new medium

Full textIn this thesis we study the possibility for a cognitive mechanism to be dedicated to the simulation of movement. An equivalency thesis between perception and imagination is at stake, wherein the supposition is made that some processes allow to mentally track an objet the way we visually track a real object, and that mental tracking is enriched with implicit knowledge related to the physical and causal structure of the environment. We use a new experimental paradigm enabling to combine a causality attribution task to a prediction of movement task in which participants are told to imagine the trajectory of a moving object disappearing behind a screen. We show that the prediction is at departure from a correct extrapolation, in a way inconsistent with the use of analogical reprentations of a movement, and that there is no evidence for a detailed representation of the physical and causal structure of dynamical events. We discuss these results along the line of a deflationnary thesis regarding the human skills in dynamic imagery
Ryst, Elise. "Syllabation en anglais et en français : considérations formelles et expérimentales." Paris 8, 2014. http://octaviana.fr/document/185211690#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=0.
Full textThis thesis, which implies both formal and experimental aspects, investigates the perceptual basis of syllabification in French and in English. Dealing with ambisyllabicity, it reviews various definitions of the syllable as well as the hypothetical universality of its role in monolingual and bilingual speakers. The originality of the work relies on the consideration of the preferences of French and English speakers-listeners in a syllabification task. For the specific case of CVCV two-syllable words, speakers of English sometimes take into account vowel quality and the place of lexical stress: a two-syllable CVCV word will usually be segmented CV. CV in English (and it is supposed to be always the case in French). But if the linguistic context favors ambisyllabicity (when the first V of CVCV is a stressed short vowel and the other vowel is unstressed) or if morphology occurs (if both vowels are stressed in CVCV), English speakers might favor other segmentation options such as CVC. V or CVC. CV. The present research is the perceptive counterpart of a preceding work (Ryst, 2008) and shows the influence of the degree of L2 exposure on the speakers’ syllabification preferences. The algorithm for the syllabification of English utterances can find technological applications (automatic segmentation of isolated words in dictionaries). Educational applications and other research perspectives are also discussed

Full textDevelopment of the stereoscopic devices gives rise to new oculomotor problems. During exposure to these devices, oculomotor's behaviour differs from that during natural vision. Accommodation (A), allowing to obtain a clear image of the object looked at, becomes in conflict with vergence, allowing to align the eyes on the virtual object. The involvement of Human and how the oculomotor system is able to deal with this oculomotor conflict are under-exploited and little known. This thesis examines the impact of the A/V conflict on the oculomotor system through three studies. A first methodological study determines the impact of different types of measurements on the evaluation of oculomotor parameters. Several oculomotor parameters were assessed using various a laboratory and clinical method. The results show that the repeatability of the tests and the agreement between methods greatly vary. Two studies were then conducted to identify and understand the changes caused by A/V conflict generated by stereoscopy and hyper relief. The paradigm used was a pre-post exposure paradigm on several oculomotor parameters especially involved in stereoscopic viewing. The study on hyper relief, creating a partial conflict between the A and V components, shows that the oculomotor system is able to globally adapt. The study on the stereoscopic viewing, creating a total dissociation between the A and V components, shows the existence of an oculomotor adaptation highly dependent on the stimulation and encourages further understanding of this process. The work helps to clarify the knowledge of the oculomotor system in the specific context of A/V conflict and begins the understanding of the impact of stereoscopic displays on the oculomotor system

Phd thesis, Paris 8, 2006. http://octaviana.fr/document/119079542#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=0.
Full textThe ability to conceive in total abstraction calls upon the faculty that has our brain to fill what is not visible by the nearest image. That creates a visual illusion and then our imagination bring forward mental images. My research consists in presenting an artistic concept using interferences and illusions to create three-dimensional characters. Also this thesis is composed in two sections. The first section is a general study on the properties of light, optical and the method to create interferences. The second section is based on my practical work. I explain, step by step, how to conceive three-dimensional characters due to visual illusions obtained through interference rings disturbed on purpose

Full textRelying on the specific material characteristics of the film medium, the works brought together in this study attempt to describe or depict the spacetime continuum. Filmic continuity is the continuity resulting from a camera recording and, in some respects, it resembles or is similar to the continuity of reality. Whenever a phenomenon is recorded, its spacetime coherence is at the same time transformed and preserved. By recoursing to filmic capture, the filmic devices of this corpus seek to appropriate reality as a material. Artists, when they cut and reorder filmic material, get around the inexorable quality of our spacetime condition and try to reveal otherwise inaccessible dimensionalities. Films supplant their original bidimensionality and take shape; they are tubes, ellipses, anamorphoses, sometimes to the point of becoming prehensible objects. This process of filmic transformation seeks to be as continuous as possible, with no breaks or tears, through topological distorsions. Filmic capture, being anchored in the territory, also makes it possible to appropriate time and space on a planet-wide scale. The viewing machine is sometimes globalized, and shooting is carried out remotely using a webcam with the operator thousands of miles away. The continuity paradigm is thus modified, for the filmic mechanism is pulled in two directions. Images become tools for measuring and deciphering the planet; films are then geodesic in nature, i. E. They contribute towards a poetic measurement of the globe

Full textApart from his political and educational work, and from his controversial autobiography, José Vasconcelos (1882-1959) is known for his Ibero-Americanist thought. The Cosmic Race gathers all the ideas that are systematically associated with him. What this prominent intellectual personality left for posterity is a reflective and existential attitude embodied in the defense of the Ibero-American identity (Bolivar’s doctrine) as opposed to the Anglo-American one (Monroe’s doctrine). However, in addition to having been a “race advocate”, Vasconcelos constructed a philosophical system. The system is known as “Aesthetic Monism” and it consists mainly of Tratado de Metafísica (1929), Ética (1932) and Estética (1935). Nevertheless, due to the fact that he was a passionate Ibero-Americanist, his philosophical thought has always been explained from the sociopolitical point of view. His philosophy is, therefore, what we know less of and what is most criticized because, according to experts, it is made up of dogmatic and irrationalist ideas. Actually, this opinion is based on the hegemonic vision of the Hispano-American philosophic historiography. In fact, from this point of view, there has not been an authentic philosophical thought to this day because it has always been characterized as the reproduction of European ones. Even though nowadays Hispano-American thought has been made aware of that fact and has been able to correct many of its faults, its past is still marked by the imitation. Therefore, the aim of this thesis is to determine whether José Vasconcelos’ philosophical thought is the reproduction of European thought, if it does not have any philosophical contribution and if it is true that it is merely a practical, ideological and political gesture. In other words, our analysis aims at identifying if there is no development inherent to Hispano-American thought and if, as a consequence, in order to think about Hispanic America, it is required to continue looking outwards only

Full textDifferences between female and male voices are linked to complex and multidisciplinary issues. The current study focuses on phonetic and psycholinguistic aspects. The first chapter is a literature review of the field. The second chapter presents an acoustic analysis of dissyllabic words produced by Northeastern American English speakers and Parisian French speakers. Resonant frequencies, mean F0, F0 range, VOT, H1-H2 intensity differences and words’ durations were measured. Significant cross-gender differences were obtained for each tested parameter. Moreover, cross-language variations were observed. The same recordings were then used in gender identification from speech experiment. It was conducted jointly on Parisian French native listeners with French stimuli, and on American English listeners with English stimuli. Listeners had to identify the speaker’s gender and indicate their degree of certainty. Considering the acoustic analysis performed on the stimuli, it was found that American English and French listeners did not use the same strategies. The fourth and last chapter is dedicated to a word spotting experiment, conducted with French native speakers. Results suggest that these two types of voice are processed equally fast. To conclude, it appears that cross-gender acoustic differences and listeners' strategies in gender identification from voice are strongly language dependent and therefore socially constructed. Research perspectives and practical applications are proposed

Full textThis thesis, qualified as research training, aims to understand how the coordinators of located Units for inclusive education, specific "Pervasive Developmental Disorders", managed to know how to be transformed to lead, for the best the schooling of students with autism. The work of these coordinators is complex: they must work so that their students can benefit from inclusive education while developing specific adaptations to special educational needs of young people. To this end, teachers acquire or transform schemes or meaning perspectives (Mezirow, 2001) from dilemmas. Our study, on one hand, reveals their current schemes and meaning perspectives and on the other hand models the process of know how to be transformed, the whole constituting knowledge about education. An emplotment of the transcriptions of interviews, supported by theoretical modelling as well as educational aims of the researcher-trainer, leads to stories of « Ulis » PDD coordinators

Full textThis thesis is a multidisciplinary approach which characterizes the electric guitar in complementary perspectives to qualify it and give it the status of subject of study in a musicological framework for renewed methods. The first part is a presentation of the essential tools that make up the environment of the instrument and the musician. It deals with the electrification of the guitar, its hardware configuration, the relationship of the musician to the instrument and the influence of studio audio techniques in music production. The second part is an organological study of the most famous models of solidbody electric guitars (Fender Telecaster, Stratocaster and Gibson Les Paul) and some alternatives. This approach shows that the electric guitar remains in extremely varied forms today despite widespread archetypes that have become a benchmark worldwide. The third part is devoted to the speech of guitarists who gave their own definition of the electric guitar under unusual perceptual studies. Verbal data were collected and analyzed. The results presented relate to the representations of brands and models, and the study of the vocabulary of this community of musicians. All of this work is part of an interdisciplinary collaboration between research teams in musicology, psychology/linguistics and mechanics

Full textThe radioactive waste burial project, Cigéo (Industrial centre for geological disposal), provides for the storage of French nuclear waste, 500 metres underground, between Meuse and Haute-Marne. The National Agency for the Management of Radioactive Waste (Andra) leads the infrastructure project to store the waste long term, since radioactive decay can extend from five centuries to 100,000 years. Such a project certainly represents a technical challenge, but it also represents a cultural challenge: how does one create and preserve the memory of the existence of this storage facility? The Memory program, piloted by Andra, funds research on the carriers and the messages likely to generate and maintain a collective memory of the landfill site, in the (very) long term. Our research questions the capacity of sound to transmit a stable message and contribute to creating a lasting memory. We therefore seek to identify and conceive discourses whose meaning could be understood by individuals from various cultural backgrounds, and which are likely to continually exist on a multi-secular scale. This work proceeds to an inventory of the problems linked to such a project. They approach the role and place of sound within the memory system, and in interaction with the other discursive modalities that will compose it. We explore the relevant theoretical horizons in order to describe and understand how sound makes sense. Finally, the analysis of data from surveys on sound perception allows us to discuss theoretical contributions and specify the relevant research horizons for the description of sound meaning, and the development of tools for the design of sound signage

Full textCalhoun, 1998, p.3), has been highlighted in the literature as a positive outcome of the trauma.In the literature, environmental resources (e.g., social and familial support), individual resources (e.g., personality traits, socio-demographic variables), perception of the event (e.g., type of trauma, duration of trauma), cognitive processing (e.g. impact of event, religious participation), and coping (e.g. problem focused coping, emotion focused coping) were found as possible factors on the development of PTG. In the present study, a model to predict PTG in the patients suffering from myocardial infarction (MI
heart attack) and their spouses was tested on the basis of environmental and personal resources, the perception of the event and cognitive processing as latent variables. The model, developed by Schaefer and Moos (1998), was empirically analyzed for the first time with patients suffered from myocardial infarction and their spouses by structural equation model (SEM) using AMOS program. MI patients getting the treatment in various hospitals in the city of Bolu (N=151) and their spouses (N=137) completed the measures in 1.5-2 hours sessions. The analysis of the model with the MI patients&

data revealed that both environmental resources and individual resources demonstrated indirect effects on PTG via the effect of the perception of the event, cognitive processing and coping. On the other hand, the analysis of the model for the spouses revealed that individual resources demonstrated indirect effects on PTG through the effect of the perception of the event, cognitive processing and coping while environmental resources did not show significant indirect effects on PTG.The findings were discussed in the context of recent theoretical models of PTG, shortcomings of the current study, clinical implications, and suggestions for future research.
