ch 11
sounds linked in time are grouped together and sound not correlated with one another are not grouped together
sounds coming from the same location are grouped together and sounds from different locations are not grouped together
temporal segregation
spatial segregation
what is the theory that the core of speech perception is that the system infers the sound from the movements of the vocal tract
motor theory of speech perception
condition where a stimulus in one modality consistently triggers a response in another modality
condition where brain damage interferes with the perception of music but doesn't interfere with other aspects of auditory processing
synethesia
amusia
what is the subjective experience of sound that is most closely associated with the frequency of a sound stimulus
pitch
phenomenon where vision influences the sounds participants report hearing
The McGurk Effect
sounds that overlap in harmonic structure are grouped together and sounds that don't aren't
spectral segregation
what is the function of broca's area in speech perception? wernicke?
Broca: production of speech in the left frontal lobe
Wernicke: comprehension of speech in the left temporal lobe
what is ordered sound made and perceived in meaningful patterns
what is relative loudness and how loudness changes across a composition
music
dynamics
what is the interval between one note and note with either double the frequency or half the frequency of that note
octave
the phenomenon where one phoneme affects the acoustic properties of subsequent phonemes
whether the vocal cords are vibrating or not
coarticulation
voicing
area on side of head opposite from the source of sound where the loudness of a sound is less because of blocked sound waves
region of positions in space where sounds create the same intramural time and intramural level difference
acoustic shadow
cone of confusion
what is an impairment in language production or comprehension brought on by neurological damage
aphasia
pleasant sound that results when two or more notes are played together
perceived sound differences between sounds with the same pitch but different harmonics
harmony
timbre
frequency bands with higher amplitudes among the harmonics of a vowel sound
formants
place and manner of articulation
the left to right or side to side aspect of sound localization
the up and down dimension of sound localization
elevation
what is the claim that mechanisms for speech perception are distinct and unique relative to the mechanisms for auditory perception in general, what is the opposite theory of this
special-mechanism theories
general mechanism theories
temporal patterning of music
pace at which a pieces of music is played
beginning build up of a note
rhythm
tempo
attack
basic units of sound in the human language
phonemes
4 parts of the human body responsible for speech
trachea, larynx, pharynx, uvula
list the 6 stops on the auditory pathway
cochlear nucleus
trapezoid body
superior olive
inferior colliculus
medial geniculate body
primary auditory cortex
what is an illusion where participants hear sounds that are makes by white noise but context makes the missing sound apparent
phonemic restoration effect
temporal pattern of sound across time
spaced pulses that indicate if a piece is fast or slow
meter
beat
speech sounds made with unrestricted air flow
speech sounds made with restricted air flow
vowels
consonants
