Abstract
The effect on auditory stream segregation of the duration of silent gaps between items of a repeating sequence of sine tone stimuli was investigated. Previously it was shown that gaps reduced the tendency for items to segregate, while the present experiment showed that this was not the case; in adjusting tone durations for stream segregation thresholds, subjects [human] simply conpensated for increased gap duration, keeping the total time (tone duration plus gap duration) constant.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
