Why not Licklider's classic 1948 demonstration of binaural unmasking - the
so-called masking-level difference, seen in the N-zero-S-pi conditions, and so
on (see for example p. 341 of the Gulick et al. textbook "Hearing")? There have
been well over 1,000 published papers on binaural interaction, so this one's
mandatory. - Lance Nizami PhD, Decatur, GA 30030

Hi,
I am starting a hands-on auditory experimentation course at
the
University of Montreal this fall, and I'd like for the students
to
experience some of the 'classical' experiments in
psychoacoustics. My
candidates so far are (versions of) loudness
scaling, temporal
integration of loudness, the lower limit of pitch,
Patterson's notched
noise method to measure critical bands, possibly
some experiments on
auditory aftereffects, categorical perception of
vowels, masking (and
how it relates to mp3 encoding), virtual pitch
perception (missing
fundamental), and one or two of Al Bregman's
auditory streaming
experiments.
Does anyone have a suggestion
for other interesting/fun/instructive
experiments? I am particular
interested in strong perceptual effects
that we would be able to
measure in one session. The plan is to pose
the problem, let the
students come up with ideas for experiments, go
through the
experimental design process, and collect some data that
can be
compared to the original
study.
Cheers,
Marc
