Abstract
Airpuff-elicited eyeblink, like many other reflexes, may be inhibited when an auditory stimulus precedes the reflex-eliciting stimulus by approximately 100 milliseconds. This inhibition is greater when the auditory stimulus is delivered to one ear than when it is presented binaurally.Keywords
