Abstract:Research from our laboratory has shown that instability or changes in masking noise which are temporally contiguous with the potential signal will result in nonsimultaneous masking effects. The present experiment involves a monaural signal (1000 Hz) embedded in a broadband noise. Noise in the other earphone either was continuous, with an interaural correlation of +1 or −1 (+1 and −1 control conditions), or shifted from one correlation to the other T-ms following signal offset (T = 2, 5, 10, 20, 40, 80, 160 ms)… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
