Varieties of auditory distraction
Historically, laboratory research on the effects of noise on performance is split into two eras; one, up to the 1970s was concerned with how loud white noise interfered with cognitive and motor tasks (see Jones & Broadbent 1991, for an overview), the other, from the 1980s recognized that sound need not be loud to be distracting, indeed, speech sounds as quiet as a whisper could disrupt cognitiv...
متن کاملAuditory and visual distraction.
D epending on the circumstances, multisensory stimulation may be either a blessing or a curse. Hearing-impaired persons in general, and cochlear implant users in particular, derive considerable benefit from the visual cues of the speaker's face and body in face-to-face speech communication. On the other hand, the faithful basketball fan, intently following the L.A. Lakers–Orlando Magic finals g...
متن کاملWhat Determines Auditory Distraction? On the Roles of Local Auditory Changes and Expectation Violations
Both the acoustic variability of a distractor sequence and the degree to which it violates expectations are important determinants of auditory distraction. In four experiments we examined the relative contribution of local auditory changes on the one hand and expectation violations on the other hand in the disruption of serial recall by irrelevant sound. We present evidence for a greater disrup...
متن کاملHemispheric asymmetries in auditory distraction.
Serial-verbal short-term memory is impaired by irrelevant sound, particularly when the sound changes acoustically (the changing-state effect). In contrast, short-term recall of semantic information is impaired only by the semanticity of irrelevant speech, particularly when it is semantically related to the target memory items (the between-sequence semantic similarity effect). Previous research ...
متن کاملContext effects on auditory distraction.
The purpose of the study was to test the hypothesis that sound context modulates the magnitude of auditory distraction, indexed by behavioral and electrophysiological measures. Participants were asked to identify tone duration, while irrelevant changes occurred in tone frequency, tone intensity, and harmonic structure. Frequency deviants were randomly intermixed with standards (Uni-Condition), ...
