Reference frame of the ventriloquism aftereffect.

2 Nov 2009 Seeing the image of a newscaster on a television set causes us to think that the sound coming from the loudspeaker is actually coming from the screen. How images capture sounds is mysterious because the brain uses different methods for determining ... Read more...

Dynamic range adaptation to sound level statistics in the auditory nerve.

2 Nov 2009 The auditory system operates over a vast range of sound pressure levels (100-120 dB) with nearly constant discrimination ability across most of the range, well exceeding the dynamic range of most auditory neurons (20-40 dB). Dean et al. (2005) have ... Read more...

Anesthesia prevents auditory perceptual learning.

30 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: An auditory perceptual learning paradigm was used to investigate whether implicit memories are formed during general anesthesia. METHODS: Eighty-seven patients who had an American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status of I-III and ... Read more...
