“…Many studies suggest that the image will be completely lateralized when the interaural difference is about 10 dB (B•k•sy, 1959, 1960Babkoff, 1982;Babkoff et al, 1973;Durlach and Colburn, 1978), but some studies report lateralization with smaller (Flanagan et al, 1964) or with greater (Guttman, 1962a) intensity asymmetry. Generally, lateralization based on interaural intensity asymmetry seems to be less influenced by spectral and overall level characteristics of the stimulus than lateralization based on interaural time asymmetry (Babkoff, 1982). When there is a pure interaural time difference, it is mainly the low-frequency segment (below about 1200-1500 Hz) of short-duration pure tones, broadband noises, or clicks that affects lateralization.…”
