Abstract
The ability of trained observers to monitor two channels in a frequency discrimination inclusive OR paradigm was examined, using clearly detectable signals. The various discrimination tasks involved both (1) the simultaneous monitoring and (2) the single-channel monitoring of simultaneous, independently presented signal events in each earphone channel, as well as (3) the monitoring of events restricted to a single fixed channel. The effects of critical bandwidth limitations on the ability of the observer to perform the tasks was explored. The results are compared with those of two-channel detection tasks in which the ability of the observers to perform is effected by signal frequency separation relative to the critical bandwidth.
