Abstract

The maximal interaural time difference that could be introduced into one channel without loss of sidedness was determined for various noise bands. Through the presentation of stimuli by several methods it was found that time values vary with frequency of the noise bands, being greater for lower bands. Marked intersubject differences were found. For the lowest and most effective band used (106-212 cps), times ranged from 7.5 to 20.6 millisec.
