Response Scatter in Measuring Changing-Loudness Aftereffects
Researchers have postulated 2 mechanisms for processing auditory motion: a direct mechanism processing motion itself and an indirect mechanism sensitive to location over discrete points in time. Measuring aftereffects of azimuthal motion by nulling entails scattered responding, which is attributed to a conflict between direct and indirect mechanisms. In this experiment, the author obtained nulls following adaptation to changing sound level, a pro…
The Spectrally Dependent Monotic Component in the Decreasing-Loudness Aftereffect
Listeners exposed to a tone increasing in intensity report an aftereffect of decreasing loudness in a steady tone heard afterward. In the present study, the spectral dependence of the monotic decreasing-loudness aftereffect (adapting and testing 1 ear) was compared with (a) the spectral dependence of the interotic decreasing-loudness aftereffect (adapting 1 ear and testing the other ear) and (b) a non-adaptation control condition. The purpose was…
Sensitivity in Changing-Loudness Aftereffects as Indicated by an Adjustment Procedure
The reduced sensitivity that accompanies some auditory aftereffects has been linked to sensory fatigue. However, changing-loudness aftereffects are unaffected by reduced sensitivity, according to previous evidence from a single-interval forced-choice procedure. That result was confirmed in the present study, in which an adjustment procedure was used to measure changing-loudness aftereffects. In each condition, the listener set the rate of intensi…
Illusory Increasing Loudness in Brief Steady Tones
A brief tone of steady intensity may be heard as growing louder. Increasing loudness signals an approaching sound source, so this illusion may reflect the importance of detecting potential collision, analogous to “looming” in the visual modality. In previous studies, diotic stimuli, simulating a sound source within a plane defined by zero degrees azimuth, have been used. However, collision can arise from any direction. Hence, the illusion should …
Remote Operation
Some perceptual motor operations are performed remotely; examples include the handling of life-threatening materials and surgical procedures. A camera conveys the site of operation to a TV monitor, so depth perception relies mainly on pictorial information, perhaps with enhancement of the occlusion cue by motion. However, motion information such as motion parallax is not likely to be important. The effectiveness of pictorial information is dimini…
The Illusion of Increasing Loudness in Brief Steady Tones
A brief tone of steady intensity is heard as growing louder; to be heard as steady, intensity must be decreasing. The present report concerns the influence of carrier frequency on this illusion. Stimuli each lasted 1.5 s, during which time intensity was increasing, decreasing, or remaining steady; the initial intensity was 40 dB SPL (sound pressure level relative to 0.0002 dynes/cm2). Carrier frequencies were between 0.0625 and 8.0 kHz. Four list…
Asymmetrical Perception of Changing Intensity in Short Tonal Stimuli
A number of reports have suggested that changing intensity in short tonal stimuli is asymmetrically perceived. In particular, steady stimuli may be heard as growing louder; stimuli must decrease in intensity to be heard as steady in loudness. The influence of stimulus duration on this perceptual asymmetry was examined. Three participants heard diotic tonal stimuli of eight durations between 0.8 s and 2.5 s. Each stimulus increased, decreased, or …
Perceiving the Orientation-In-Depth of Triangular Surfaces
Although data from simulations suggest that motion information and binocular information each elicit veridical depth perception, data from real stimuli, such as trapezoidal surfaces, are equivocal; the discrepancy might be explained by the complexity of nonveridical pictorial information in the latter. In the present study, observers judged the orientations-in-depth of triangular surfaces about a vertical axis: Pictorial information resided only …
The Influence of Onset Sound Level of Test Stimulus on Reported Magnitude of Changing-Loudness Aftereffects
An increasing-loudness aftereffect follows adaptation to a tone of decreasing sound level; a decreasing-loudness aftereffect follows adaptation to a tone of increasing sound level. Contrary to the belief that sensory processing contributes to these changing-loudness aftereffects, evidence suggests that onset sound level of test stimulus may have little influence on reported aftereffects. This was tested formally in the present study. Adapting sti…
Verbal Judgments of a Surface's Orientation-In-Depth in Degrees of Angle
Moving-monocular viewing and static-binocular viewing can elicit veridical verbal judgments of a real surface's orientation-in-depth; however, separation-in-depth of real objects is often underestimated; the equidistance tendency applies. The discrepancy might be explained by the differing automaticity of judgments: Surfaces are judged automatically in minutes of analog time, and objects are judged nonautomatically in distance units. This hypothe…
