Psychology of auditory perception
WIREs Cognitive Science, 2010AbstractAudition is often treated as a ‘secondary’ sensory system behind vision in the study of cognitive science. In this review, we focus on three seemingly simple perceptual tasks to demonstrate the complexity of perceptual–cognitive processing involved in everyday audition.

AUDITORY PSYCHOPHYSICS AND PERCEPTION
Annual Review of Psychology, 1996▪ Abstract In this review of auditory psychophysics and perception, we cite some important books, research monographs, and research summaries from the past decade. Within auditory psychophysics, we have singled out some topics of current importance: Cross-Spectral Processing, Timbre and Pitch, and Methodological Developments.

Auditory Spatial Perception: Auditory Localization [PDF]
, 2012 Abstract : Research into human auditory localization acuity and factors that compromise this acuity is an ongoing research program at the U.S. Army Research Laboratory. Although there is a wealth of information in the professional literature about the physical, physiological, and psychological underpinnings of auditory localization, the specific ...

Auditory perception of fractal contours. [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1993 A series of experiments examined auditory contour formation, investigating listeners' sensitivities to a family of random fractals known as fractional Brownian noises. Experiments 1A and 1B looked at identification of contours when 3 different noises were portrayed using variations in the pitch, duration, or loudness of successive notes of a sequence ...

Auditory Perception of a Human Walker
Perception, 2014When one hears footsteps in the hall, one is able to instantly recognise it as a person: this is an everyday example of auditory biological motion perception. Despite the familiarity of this experience, research into this phenomenon is in its infancy compared with visual biological motion perception.

Perception, 1979
A set of three studies was designed to investigate the role of touch-produced sounds in the perception of surface texture. Subjects were capable of judging roughness on the basis of sounds alone. Auditory judgments were similar, but not identical to corresponding haptic touch judgments.

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1980
We have begun a series of experiments in the general area of localization or auditory space perception. In these experiments, listeners hear sounds one at a time (either in free field or via headphones) from 20 or more source positions, and make judgments of the relative spatial distance between pairs of sounds. In the free-field conditions, the sounds

Perception of auditory signals
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2011Auditory signals are decomposed into discrete frequency elements early in the transduction process, yet somehow these signals are recombined into the rich acoustic percepts that we readily identify and are familiar with. The cerebral cortex is necessary for the perception of these signals, and studies from several laboratories over the past decade have

Social Differences in Auditory Perception
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1965Two groups differing in social background and ethnicity were found to respond differently to an auditory time error task. The white middle-class group tended to overestimate the intensity of the second of two objectively equal stimuli and showed a rising curve of overestimation as the time interval between stimuli increased from 1 to 5 sec.
