Abstract

Does the auditory system extract binaural information better from a single package of information or from several shorter packets, distributed in time? Distribution of packets in time is apparently superior. The minimal interaural noise correlation that was discriminably different from a noise interaural correlation of zero was determined. Over a wide range of conditions, an “off” interval of about 2–5 msec between successive packets yielded optimal performance. The distributed condition apparently permits recovery of the auditory system between successive packets; whereas, more widely distributed packets apparently do not permit adequate short-time memory or integration of binaural information.
