On Human Perceptual Bandwidth and Slow Listening

Locked away inside its shell, the brain has ever only learned about the world through our five primary senses. With them, we just receive a fraction of the information actually available, while we perceive far less still. A fraction of a fraction: The perceptual bandwidth. Conscious perception is furthermore influenced by long-term experience and learning, to an extent that perception might be more accurately understood and studied as primarily an inside-to-out phenomena. Summarizing a review of physiological, clinical and psychological research, the paper proposes three types of listening strategies we should distinguish between when conducting subjective tests: Easy listening, trained listening and slow listening.
