Range effects in the identification of lateral position.
Experiments on the identification of interaural time and interaural amplitude differences were conducted to evaluate the effects of stimulus range on identification performance. Three stimulus sets, large range (LR), small-range center (SRC), and small-range side (SRS), were used in experiments on interaural time and amplitude identification. As expected, data for both sets of measurements show worse resolution for LR than SRC or SRS, demonstrating that the ability to distinguish between two fixed interaural differences can be strongly influenced by the total range of such differences in the stimulus set.
