This research demonstrates that moving visual stimuli can improve time perception to match the accuracy of auditory cues. Using a novel bouncing-ball experiment, it challenges the belief that hearing is always superior for judging time and offers new insights for assistive technologies, sports performance, human coordination, and cognitive psychology.

A cross-cultural study of urban beauty shows that perceptions vary widely across individuals. Using Google Street View images and participant rankings from 20 countries, the research found no shared standards of beauty and no demographic explanations. While individuals were internally consistent, beauty judgments were deeply subjective, challenging data-driven approaches to urban design.
