Intensity and reverberation as factors in the auditory perception of egocentric distance
Donald H. Mershon,L. Edward King +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a comparison of data obtained in a normally reverberatory setting and an anechoic chamber (Experiment 2) indicated that the state of reverberation could serve as an absolute cue, with greater reverberation being associated with greater perceived distances.
Journal ArticleDOI
Absolute and relative cues for the auditory perception of egocentric distance.
Donald H. Mershon,John N Bowers +1 more
TL;DR: Three experiments were performed to examine the reverberation cue to egocentric auditory distance and to determine the extent to which such a cue could provide ‘absolute’, as contrasted with ‘relative’; information about distance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of room reflectance and background noise on perceived auditory distance.
TL;DR: Perceptions of egocentric auditory distance were investigated within an environment for which the reverberation time could be systematically varied without changes in the size or shape of the room.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spectral content as a cue to perceived auditory distance.
TL;DR: An attempt to answer the question can differences in spectral content indicate systematic differences in distance even on their first presentation to a listener, or must the listener be able to compare sounds with one another in order to perceive some change in their distances?
Journal ArticleDOI
Depth adjacency in simultaneous contrast
TL;DR: In this paper, the Gelb phenomenon was investigated with three amounts of separation in depth between the test and induction disc and it was found that the magnitude of the contrast effect decreased with an increase in the perceived depth between two discs.
