Localization

Question 1 of 13

1

What is localization?

Select one of the following:

  • The experience of sound's origin in space

  • Where the individual is in auditory space

  • Where the sound is in auditory space

  • The process of transmitting a sound in order to be located

Explanation

Question 2 of 13

1

What is lateralization?

Select one of the following:

  • The experience of sound's origin inside the head

  • The experience of sound's origin in auditory space

  • The ability to process auditory stimuli in both hemispheres

  • The experience of two or more sounds coming from different locations

Explanation

Question 3 of 13

1

What are the two primary localization cues?

Select one of the following:

  • Temporal/phase disparity and Intensity disparity

  • Frequency disparity and Intensity disparity

  • Frequency disparity and Temporal/phase disparity

Explanation

Question 4 of 13

1

What is the main assumption of temporal/phase disparity (interaural temporal (phase) difference) ?

Select one of the following:

  • The sound will reach one ear before the other, onset difference

  • The soundwave will be at a different phase when it reaches one ear than when it reaches the other

  • The temporal qualities of a sound give information about the source of the sound

  • The relationship between amplitude and pitch give information about the sound's location

Explanation

Question 5 of 13

1

Ongoing phase disparity: the (a) between ears provides information about which (b) leads

Select one of the following:

  • (a) phase relation, (b) tone

  • (a) frequency relation, (b) tone

  • (a) phase relation, (b) frequency

  • (a) frequency relation, (b) frequency

Explanation

Question 6 of 13

1

With (a) frequencies the sound wave is longer, therefore (b) to tell which tone's phase leads the other

Select one of the following:

  • (a) low, (b) easier

  • (a) high, (b) easier

  • (a) low, (b) harder

  • (a) high, (b) harder

Explanation

Question 7 of 13

1

Between frequencies of (a) time taken to complete half a wavelength is (b) the time taken to travel the head's circumference. Therefore ambiguous to which ear is receiving tone.

Select one of the following:

  • (a) 750-1000Hz, (b) aproximately

  • (a) 750-1000Hz, (b) greater than

  • (a) 500-750Hz, (b) approximately

  • (b) 500-750Hz, (b) greater than

Explanation

Question 8 of 13

1

It is possible to use phase cues up to what?

Select one of the following:

  • 700Hz

  • 1000Hz

  • 700 mel

  • 1000 mel

Explanation

Question 9 of 13

1

Phase disparity cues are most useful for frequencies that have (a) wavelengths compared to head size

Select one of the following:

  • long

  • short

  • equal

Explanation

Question 10 of 13

1

What is the main assumption of intensity disparity (interaural intensity difference)?

Select one of the following:

  • Sound will be slightly more intense in closer ear

  • Sound will be slightly more intense in farther ear

  • Sound will be slightly more intense depending on its frequency

  • Sound will be slightly less intense depending on its timbre

Explanation

Question 11 of 13

1

(a) sound tends to be reflected rather than wrapping round the head

Select one of the following:

  • high frequency

  • low frequency

  • high intensity

  • low intensity

Explanation

Question 12 of 13

1

Low-frequency pure tones primarily use (a) whilst high-frequency tones primarily use (b)

Select one of the following:

  • (a) phase disparity, (b) intensity disparity

  • (a) intensity disparity, (b) phase disparity

  • (a) intensity disparity, (b) intensity disparity

  • (a) phase disparity, (b) phase disparity

Explanation
