In the May JASA Express Letters: Aronoff, et al., "Cochlear implant patients’ localization using interaural level differences exceeds that of untrained normal hearing listeners"
Bilateral cochlear implant (CI) patients are unable to localize sounds as well as normal hearing (NH) listeners (Grantham et al., 20074; Majdak et al., 20118). NH listeners rely on interaural time differences (ITDs) and interaural level differences (ILDs) to localize sounds. However, bilateral CI users have considerable difficulty using ITDs to localize (Aronoff et al., 20102), indicating that their localization abilities are primarily or exclusively based on ILDs. access is free http://asadl.org/jasa/resource/1/jasman/v131/i5/pEL382_s1?view=fulltext -- Aaron Heller ([email protected]) Menlo Park, CA US _______________________________________________ Sursound mailing list [email protected] https://mail.music.vt.edu/mailman/listinfo/sursound
