Yes. It is generally true in animal communication sounds. We have just
written a chapter on it the next SHAR book. I can send you a preprint if
you are interested.

Dear Peter,
if you hit a large bell and a small bell, how loud they are does not depend on
size, but on how hard you hit them. The larger the object the deeper the sound,
because resonant frequency is proportional to mass. So if there is a link with
size, then it should be pitch more than loudness.

anyone know of experimental psychological data reported which refutes (or not)
the hypothesis: the perception of object O as "has much of quality X"
predisposes to the perception also of "has much of quality Y"? E.g., is there
empirical evidence for cross-modal bonds like "large objects (much of size) are
loud objects (much of sound)" ? Although I see brain research approaching the
subject (e.g. http://www.dhushara.com/pdf/synesthesia.pdf ) I have not (yet)
found so much empirical psychology about such metaphors. I may not have studied
carefully enough the synaestesia literature, but appreciate any more specific
'forwardings' then.Pieter Jan Stallen / Chair Community Noise Annoyance /
