How do we measure sound perception? How can scientists quantify something so subjective?
Dr Sarah Payne walks us through how scales for soundscape are adapted from visual research. We'll discuss a whole range of scales and theories, like Attention Restoration Theory (ART), Perceived Restorative-ness Scale (PRS), Restorative Components Scale (RCS). But really, the highlight might just be her tips on creating a great acronym, like DESTRESS - (Designing and Engineering Soundscapes To enable Restorative Environments for Sustainable Societies) - bravo!
