Amplitude modulation waveforms can contain complex patterns of modulation frequency
and depth that are characteristic of many biologically relevant sounds. To investigate the …

Three experiments are presented to explore the relative role of “external” signal variability
and “internal” resolution limitations of the auditory system in the detection and discrimination …

Albert Feng was a prominent comparative neurophysiologist whose research provided
numerous contributions towards understanding how the spectral and temporal …

Steady-state potentials evoked in response to binaural, sinusoidally amplitude-modulated
(AM) pure tones and broadband noise signals were recorded differentially from position F 4 …

Detection thresholds for a 1.0‐kHz pure tone were determined in unmodulated noise and in
noise modulated by a 15‐Hz square wave. Comodulation masking release (CMR) was …

Twelve highly trained listeners detected tonal signals in the absence of external masking
noise. The signals were 150 msec long and ranged from 125 to 4000 Hz. Fitted …

Investigating responses of auditory neurons to critical features of important sounds is one
approach to understanding the neural basis of complex sound encoding by the auditory …

Listeners were asked to detect sinusoidal amplitude modulation (SAM) of one carrier tone
(the target carrier) in the presence of a second carrier tone (the masking carrier) that also …
