KembaraXtra-Psychology - audience effect
The audience effect is the influence of passive observers on an individual’s performance, which can either improve or impair performance depending on the task, and relates to social facilitation theories, response competition, overlearning, and the next-in-line effect; it is compared with the coaction effect.

KembaraXtra-Psychology - audibility range
Audibility range (also called the auditory spectrum) is the span of frequencies a person can hear as tones, bounded by the lowest and highest audible frequencies. For normal hearing it extends over more than 10 octaves, from roughly 16 Hz up to about 20,000 Hz, although the upper limit typically drops sharply with age. It connects to theories of pitch and tools such as the Galton whistle and concepts such as infrasound and ultrasound.

KembaraXtra-Psychology - audibility function
An audibility function is a graph showing a listener’s absolute threshold for sound intensity across different frequencies, effectively mapping sensitivity over the audible range; it is abbreviated AF.

KembaraXtra-Psychology - Aubert–Förster phenomenon
The Aubert–Förster phenomenon (also called the Förster phenomenon) claims that near objects are perceived with greater acuity than farther objects even when they subtend the same visual angle; it relates to aerial perspective and is compared with the Aubert–Förster law.
