Frequency discrimination in forward and backward masking.
Frequency difference limens for pure tones preceded by a forward masker or followed by a backward masker were obtained across a wide range of signal levels. Relkin and Doucet [Hear. Res. 55, 215-222 (1991)] have shown that at a masker-signal delay of 100 ms, the thresholds of high-SR (spontaneous rate) auditory-nerve fibers are recovered, while the low-SR fiber thresholds are not. Therefore, fo...
متن کاملFeed-forward/Feed-backward Mechanical Amplification in the Mouse Cochlea
Introduction Sound vibrations are collected from the external environment by the eardrum and are guided to the basilar membrane in the cochlea. Pressure differences in the two scalae of the cochlea result in a traveling wave on the basilar membrane (figure 1). The tiny displacements are detected by the deflection of thousands of hair cells, situated along this membrane. It is hypothesized that ...
متن کاملA model of visual backward masking.
When two successive stimuli are presented within 0-200 ms intervals, the recognition of the first stimulus (the target) can be impaired by the second (the mask). This backward masking phenomenon has a form called metacontrast masking where the target and the mask are in close spatial proximity but not overlapping. In that case, the masking effect is strongest for interval of 60-100 ms. To under...
متن کاملSpatial processing and visual backward masking
Most theories of visual masking focus prima-rily on the temporal aspects of visual information processing, strongly neglecting spatial factors. In recent years, however, we have shown that this position is not tenable. Spatial aspects cannot be neglected in metacontrast, pattern and un-masking. Here, we review these results.
متن کاملForward masking: adaptation or integration?
The aim of this study was to attempt to distinguish between neural adaptation and persistence (or temporal integration) as possible explanations of forward masking. Thresholds were measured for a sinusoidal signal as a function of signal duration for conditions where the delay between the masker offset and the signal offset (the offset-offset interval) was fixed. The masker was a 200-ms broadba...
