Frequency Effects on Sound Localization
In a study of auditory localization, participants’ accuracy in identifying the source of a sound located 45° to their right improved as the sound’s frequency increased. Accuracy was 75% at 250 Hz, 85% at 1000 Hz, 92% at 4000 Hz, and 95% at 8000 Hz. Which principle of auditory processing best accounts for this finding?
A
Interaural intensity difference
B
