The salient sounds are splishes, splashes, drips and gurgles of actual water.
Clicks are extremely salient sounds perceptually and therefore are ideally adapted to transmitting a language.
Biologically salient sounds, including speech, are rarely heard in isolation.
Here we addressed this issue using the paradigm of emotionally salient sounds.
Patients with bvFTD, SD, and AD showed altered coupling between pupillary and affective behavioral responses to emotionally salient sounds.
In this sense, the prediction error elicited by salient sounds is not fundamentally different from the prediction error elicited by less salient but still prediction mismatching sounds.

Moreover, previous studies mostly employed either an auditory task or passive listening to salient sound stimuli to obtain sufficiently high evoked response amplitudes.
Another example of a neurophysiological error signal that is elicited by salient irregular sounds is the P3a, a frontocentral positivity occurring at around 250 300 ms after the onset of the salient sound, which is proposed to reflect the involuntary orienting of attention towards the perturbating sound (Escera et al., 2000; Friedman et al., 2001; Polich, 2007).
Our new results imply that the very simple manipulation of merely presenting a salient sound can causally impact upon visual oscillations and related visual perception and can thereby serve for experimental control of brain oscillations to probe their functional roles.
In any case the prediction error resulting from a salient sound (with no complementing prediction) will call for attention as a considerable model configuration is required, which may engage voluntary attention.
Here we build on but go beyond such work to show that mere onset of a salient sound can phase-lock human visual alpha phase, realigning periodic sampling with direct consequences for human perception, as indicated by changes in phosphene perception.
