Latency enhancement of the cochlear nerve compound action potential (CAP).
Forward maskers within two frequency-intensity domains are capable of decreasing (enhancing) CAP latency: one region flanks the low frequency tail, the other flanks the tip/high frequency slope regions of the latency tuning curve (TC). By contrast, amplitude enhancement typically does not flank the high frequency slope region.
