Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
An acoustic pointing task was used to measure extents of laterality produced by combinations of ongoing envelope-based interaural temporal disparities (ITDs) and interaural intensitive disparities (IIDs) of 4-kHz-centered raised-sine stimuli [Bernstein and Trahiotis, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 125, 3234-3242 (2009),] while varying, parametrically, their peakedness, depth of modulation, and frequency of modulation. The study was designed to assess whether IIDs act as "weights" within the putative "binaural display" at high spectral frequencies (where the envelopes convey ITD-information) as appears to be the case at low spectral frequencies (where the waveforms, i.e., fine-structure and envelopes, convey ITD-information). The data indicate that envelope-based IIDs do principally act as weights and that they appear to exert their influence on lateral position independently of the influence of ITDs. Quantitative analyses revealed that an augmented form of the cross-correlation-based "position-variable" model of Stern and Shear [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 100, 2278-2288 (1996)] accounted for 94% of the variance in the data. This success notwithstanding, for a small subset of the data, predictions could be improved by assuming that the listeners utilized information within auditory filters having center frequencies above 4 kHz. |
