人们误判前方的声音是来自后方的,因为有类似的耳机,这一发现有助于低视导航。 People misjudge front sounds as coming from behind due to similar ear cues, a finding that could aid low-vision navigation.

奥克兰大学的一项新研究发现,人们总是从前方发出来自后方的错误声音,即使蒙上眼睛并知道真实来源。 A new study from the University of Auckland finds that people consistently misperceive sounds coming from in front as originating from behind, even when blindfolded and aware of the true source. 之所以出现这种前背错觉,是因为耳朵得到几乎相同的时间和强度提示,可以听到前后的声音,将大脑引向错误的位置。 This front-back illusion occurs because the ears receive nearly identical timing and intensity cues for sounds in front and behind, leading the brain to misinterpret location. 这种影响存在于各种声音、立场和环境中,表明存在强烈的观念偏差,可能与生存本能有关,或与缺乏远见时的期望有关。 The effect held across various sounds, positions, and settings, suggesting a strong perceptual bias, possibly linked to survival instincts or expectations when vision is absent. 研究结果可以改进视力低的人的安全和导航工具。 The findings may improve safety and navigation tools for people with low vision.
