Head movement and its relation to hearing.

Head position at any point in time plays a fundamental role in shaping the auditory information that reaches a listener, information that continuously changes as the head moves and reorients to different listening situations. The connection between hearing science and the kinesthetics of head movement has gained interest due to technological advances that have increased the feasibility of providing behavioral and biological feedback to assistive listening devices that can interpret movement patterns that reflect listening intent. Increasing evidence also shows that the negative impact of hearing deficits on mobility, gait, and balance may be mitigated by prosthetic hearing device intervention. Better understanding of the relationships between head movement, full body kinetics, and hearing health, should lead to improved signal processing strategies across a range of assistive and augmented hearing devices. The purpose of this review is to introduce the wider hearing community to the kinesiology of head movement and to place it in the context of hearing and communication with the goal of expanding the field of ecologically-specific listener behavior.

Selective auditory attention modulates cortical responses to sound location change for speech in quiet and in babble.

Listeners use the spatial location or change in spatial location of coherent acoustic cues to aid in auditory object formation. From stimulus-evoked onset responses in normal-hearing listeners using electroencephalography (EEG), we have previously shown measurable tuning to stimuli changing location in quiet, revealing a potential window into the cortical representations of auditory scene analysis. These earlier studies used non-fluctuating, spectrally narrow stimuli, so it was still unknown whether previous observations would translate to speech stimuli, and whether responses would be preserved for stimuli in the presence of background maskers. To examine the effects that selective auditory attention and interferers have on object formation, we measured cortical responses to speech changing location in the free field with and without background babble (+6 dB SNR) during both passive and active conditions. Active conditions required listeners to respond to the onset of the speech stream when it occurred at a new location, explicitly indicating 'yes' or 'no' to whether the stimulus occurred at a block-specific location either 30 degrees to the left or right of midline. In the aggregate, results show similar evoked responses to speech stimuli changing location in quiet compared to babble background. However, the effect of the two background environments diverges somewhat when considering the magnitude and direction of the location change and where the subject was attending. In quiet, attention to the right hemifield appeared to evoke a stronger response than attention to the left hemifield when speech shifted in the rightward direction. No such difference was found in babble conditions. Therefore, consistent with challenges associated with cocktail party listening, directed spatial attention could be compromised in the presence of stimulus noise and likely leads to poorer use of spatial cues in auditory streaming.

Defining functional spatial boundaries using a spatial release from masking task.

The classic spatial release from masking (SRM) task measures speech recognition thresholds for discrete separation angles between a target and masker. Alternatively, this study used a modified SRM task that adaptively measured the spatial-separation angle needed between a continuous male target stream (speech with digits) and two female masker streams to achieve a specific SRM. On average, 20 young normal-hearing listeners needed less spatial separation for 6 dB release than 9 dB release, and the presence of background babble reduced across-listener variability on the paradigm. Future work is needed to better understand the psychometric properties of this adaptive procedure.

Predicting Perceived Vocal Roughness Using a Bio-Inspired Computational Model of Auditory Temporal Envelope Processing.

PURPOSE: Vocal roughness is often present in many voice disorders but the assessment of roughness mainly depends on the subjective auditory-perceptual evaluation and lacks acoustic correlates. This study aimed to apply the concept of roughness in general sound quality perception to vocal roughness assessment and to characterize the relationship between vocal roughness and temporal envelop fluctuation measures obtained from an auditory model. METHOD: Ten /ɑ/ recordings with a wide range of roughness were selected from an existing database. Ten listeners rated the roughness of the recordings in a single-variable matching task. Temporal envelope fluctuations of the recordings were analyzed with an auditory processing model of amplitude modulation that utilizes a modulation filterbank of different modulation frequencies. Pitch strength and the smoothed cepstral peak prominence were also obtained for comparison. RESULTS: Individual simple regression models yielded envelope standard deviation from a modulation filter with a low center frequency (64.3 Hz) as a statistically significant predictor of vocal roughness with a strong coefficient of determination (r 2 = .80). Pitch strength and CPPS were not significant predictors of roughness. CONCLUSION: This result supports the possible utility of envelope fluctuation measures from an auditory model as objective correlates of vocal roughness.

Large group differences in binaural sensitivity are represented in preattentive responses from auditory cortex.

Correlated sounds presented to two ears are perceived as compact and centrally lateralized, whereas decorrelation between ears leads to intracranial image widening. Though most listeners have fine resolution for perceptual changes in interaural correlation (IAC), some investigators have reported large variability in IAC thresholds, and some normal-hearing listeners even exhibit seemingly debilitating IAC thresholds. It is unknown whether or not this variability across individuals and outlier manifestations are a product of task difficulty, poor training, or a neural deficit in the binaural auditory system. The purpose of this study was first to identify listeners with normal and abnormal IAC resolution, second to evaluate the neural responses elicited by IAC changes, and third to use a well-established model of binaural processing to determine a potential explanation for observed individual variability. Nineteen subjects were enrolled in the study, eight of whom were identified as poor performers in the IAC-threshold task. Global scalp responses (N1 and P2 amplitudes of an auditory change complex) in the individuals with poor IAC behavioral thresholds were significantly smaller than for listeners with better IAC resolution. Source-localized evoked responses confirmed this group effect in multiple subdivisions of the auditory cortex, including Heschl's gyrus, planum temporale, and the temporal sulcus. In combination with binaural modeling results, this study provides objective electrophysiological evidence of a binaural processing deficit linked to internal noise, that corresponds to very poor IAC thresholds in listeners that otherwise have normal audiometric profiles and lack spatial hearing complaints.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Group differences in the perception of interaural correlation (IAC) were observed in human adults with normal audiometric sensitivity. These differences were reflected in cortical-evoked activity measured via electroencephalography (EEG). For some participants, weak representation of the binaural cue at the cortical level in preattentive N1-P2 cortical responses may be indicative of a potential processing deficit. Such a deficit may be related to a poorly understood condition known as hidden hearing loss.

Aging alters across-hemisphere cortical dynamics during binaural temporal processing.

Differences in the timing and intensity of sounds arriving at the two ears provide fundamental binaural cues that help us localize and segregate sounds in the environment. Neural encoding of these cues is commonly represented asymmetrically in the cortex with stronger activation in the hemisphere contralateral to the perceived spatial location. Although advancing age is known to degrade the perception of binaural cues, less is known about how the neural representation of such cues is impacted by age. Here, we use electroencephalography (EEG) to investigate age-related changes in the hemispheric distribution of interaural time difference (ITD) encoding based on cortical auditory evoked potentials (CAEPs) and derived binaural interaction component (BIC) measures in ten younger and ten older normal-hearing adults. Sensor-level analyses of the CAEP and BIC showed age-related differences in global field power, where older listeners had significantly larger responses than younger for both binaural metrics. Source-level analyses showed hemispheric differences in auditory cortex activity for left and right lateralized stimuli in younger adults, consistent with a contralateral activation model for processing ITDs. Older adults, however, showed reduced hemispheric asymmetry across ITDs, despite having overall larger responses than younger adults. Further, when averaged across ITD condition to evaluate changes in cortical asymmetry over time, there was a significant shift in laterality corresponding to the peak components (P1, N1, P2) in the source waveform that also was affected by age. These novel results demonstrate across-hemisphere cortical dynamics during binaural temporal processing that are altered with advancing age.

Selective auditory attention modulates cortical responses to sound location change in younger and older adults.

The present study measured scalp potentials in response to low-frequency, narrowband noise bursts changing location in the front, azimuthal plane. At question was whether selective auditory attention has a modulatory effect on the cortical encoding of spatial change and whether older listeners with normal-hearing thresholds would show depressed cortical representation for spatial changes relative to younger listeners. Young and older normal-hearing listeners were instructed to either passively listen to the stimulus presentation or actively attend to a single location (either 30° left or right of midline) and detect when a noise stream moved to the attended location. Prominent peaks of the electroencephalographic scalp waveforms were compared across groups, locations, and attention conditions. In addition, an opponent-channel model of spatial coding was performed to capture the effect of attention on spatial-change tuning. Younger listeners showed not only larger responses overall but a greater dynamic range in their response to location changes. Results suggest that younger listeners were acquiring and encoding key spatial cues at early cortical processing areas. On the other hand, each group exhibited modulatory effects of attention to spatial-change tuning, indicating that both younger and older listeners selectively attend to space in a manner that amplifies the available signal.NEW & NOTEWORTHY In complex acoustic scenes, listeners take advantage of spatial cues to selectively attend to sounds that are deemed immediately relevant. At the neural level, selective attention amplifies electrical responses to spatial changes. We tested whether older and younger listeners have comparable modulatory effects of attention to stimuli moving in the free field. Results indicate that although older listeners do have depressed overall responses, selective attention enhances spatial-change tuning in younger and older listeners alike.

A Comparison of Environment Classification Among Premium Hearing Instruments.

Hearing aids classify acoustic environments into multiple, generic classes for the purposes of guiding signal processing. Information about environmental classification is made available to the clinician for fitting, counseling, and troubleshooting purposes. The goal of this study was to better inform scientists and clinicians about the nature of that information by comparing the classification schemes among five premium hearing instruments in a wide range of acoustic scenes including those that vary in signal-to-noise ratio and overall level (dB SPL). Twenty-eight acoustic scenes representing various prototypical environments were presented to five premium devices mounted on an acoustic manikin. Classification measures were recorded from the brand-specific fitting software then recategorized to generic labels to conceal the device company, including (a) Speech in Quiet, (b) Speech in Noise, (c) Noise, and (d) Music. Twelve normal-hearing listeners also classified each scene. The results revealed a variety of similarities and differences among the five devices and the human subjects. Where some devices were highly dependent on input overall level, others were influenced markedly by signal-to-noise ratio. Differences between human and hearing aid classification were evident for several speech and music scenes. Environmental classification is the heart of the signal processing strategy for any given device, providing key input to subsequent decision-making. Comprehensive assessment of environmental classification is essential when considering the cost of signal processing errors, the potential impact for typical wearers, and the information that is available for use by clinicians. The magnitude of differences among devices is remarkable and to be noted.

Development of the Continuous Number Identification Test (CNIT): feasibility of dynamic assessment of speech intelligibility.

Objective: The present study was motivated by a need for a speech intelligibility test capable of indexing dynamic changes in the environment and adaptive processing in hearing aids. The Continuous Number Identification Test (CNIT) was developed to meet these aims.Design: From one location in the free field, speech was presented in noise (∼2 words/s) with a 100-ms inter-word interval. On average, every fourth word was a target digit and all other words were monosyllabic words. Non-numeric words had a fixed presentation level such that the dominant signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) was held at +6 dB SNR relative to background maskers. To prevent ceiling effects, however, targets were presented at a user-specific SNR, determined by an initial adaptive-tracking procedure that estimated the 79.4% speech reception threshold.Study sample: Ten normal-hearing listeners participated.Results: The CNIT showed comparable psychometric qualities of other established speech tests for long time scales (Exp. 1). Target-location changes did not affect performance on the CNIT (Exp. 2), but the test did show high temporal resolution in assessing sudden changes to SNR (Exp. 3).Conclusions: The CNIT is highly customisable, and the initial experiments tested feasibility of its primary features which set it apart from currently available speech-in-noise tests.

The Effects of Duration and Level on Spectral Modulation Perception.

Purpose Spectral modulation detection is an increasingly common assay of suprathreshold auditory perception and has been correlated with speech perception performance. Here, the potential effects of stimulus duration and stimulus presentation level on spectral modulation detection were investigated. Method Spectral modulation detection thresholds were measured as a function of modulation frequency in young, normal-hearing listeners. The standard stimulus was a bandpass noise, and signal stimuli were created by superimposing sinusoidal spectral modulation on the bandpass noise carrier. The modulation was sinusoidal on a log2 frequency axis and a log10 (dB) amplitude scale with a random starting phase (0-2π radians). In 1 experiment, stimulus durations were 50, 100, 200, or 400 ms (at fixed level 81 dB SPL). In a 2nd experiment, stimuli were presented at sensation levels of 10, 20, 30, 40, and 60 dB SL (fixed at a duration of 400 ms). Results Spectral modulation detection thresholds were similarly low for the 400- and 200-ms durations, increased slightly for the 100-ms duration, and increased markedly for the 50-ms duration. Thresholds were lowest for 40 dB SL; increased slightly for 20, 30, and 60 dB SL; and markedly higher for the 10-dB SL condition. Conclusions The increase in thresholds for the shortest durations and lowest sensational levels is consistent with previous investigations of auditory spectral profile analysis. The effects of presentation level and stimulus duration are important considerations in the context of understanding potential relationships between the perception of spectral cues and speech perception, when designing investigations and interpreting data related to spectral envelope perception, and in the context of models of auditory perception. As examples, 2 simple models based on auditory nerve output that have been used to explain spectrotemporal modulation in previous investigations produced an output inconsistent with the present results. Plain language summary Intensity variations across audio frequency lead to spectral shapes that are essential and sometimes signature features of various sounds in the environment, including speech. Here, we show how laboratory measures of spectral shape perception depend on presentation level and stimulus duration.

Electrophysiological responses to lateral shifts are not consistent with opponent-channel processing of interaural level differences.

Cortical encoding of auditory space relies on two major peripheral cues, interaural time difference (ITD) and interaural level difference (ILD) of the sounds arriving at a listener's ears. In much of the precortical auditory pathway, ITD and ILD cues are processed independently, and it is assumed that cue integration is a higher order process. However, there remains debate on how ITDs and ILDs are encoded in the cortex and whether they share a common mechanism. The present study used electroencephalography (EEG) to measure evoked cortical potentials from narrowband noise stimuli with imposed binaural cue changes. Previous studies have similarly tested ITD shifts to demonstrate that neural populations broadly favor one spatial hemifield over the other, which is consistent with an opponent-channel model that computes the relative activity between broadly tuned neural populations. However, it is still a matter of debate whether the same coding scheme applies to ILDs and, if so, whether processing the two binaural cues is distributed across similar regions of the cortex. The results indicate that ITD and ILD cues have similar neural signatures with respect to the monotonic responses to shift magnitude; however, the direction of the shift did not elicit responses equally across cues. Specifically, ITD shifts evoked greater responses for outward than inward shifts, independently of the spatial hemifield of the shift, whereas ILD-shift responses were dependent on the hemifield in which the shift occurred. Active cortical structures showed only minor overlap between responses to cues, suggesting the two are not represented by the same pathway.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Interaural time differences (ITDs) and interaural level differences (ILDs) are critical to locating auditory sources in the horizontal plane. The higher order perceptual feature of auditory space is thought to be encoded together by these binaural differences, yet evidence of their integration in cortex remains elusive. Although present results show some common effects between the two cues, key differences were observed that are not consistent with an ITD-like opponent-channel process for ILD encoding.

How Do Age and Hearing Loss Impact Spectral Envelope Perception?

Purpose: The goal was to evaluate the potential effects of increasing hearing loss and advancing age on spectral envelope perception. Method: Spectral modulation detection was measured as a function of spectral modulation frequency from 0.5 to 8.0 cycles/octave. The spectral modulation task involved discrimination of a noise carrier (3 octaves wide from 400 to 3200 Hz) with a flat spectral envelope from a noise having a sinusoidal spectral envelope across a logarithmic audio frequency scale. Spectral modulation transfer functions (SMTFs; modulation threshold vs. modulation frequency) were computed and compared 4 listener groups: young normal hearing, older normal hearing, older with mild hearing loss, and older with moderate hearing loss. Estimates of the internal spectral contrast were obtained by computing excitation patterns. Results: SMTFs for young listeners with normal hearing were bandpass with a minimum modulation detection threshold at 2 cycles/octave, and older listeners with normal hearing were remarkably similar to those of the young listeners. SMTFs for older listeners with mild and moderate hearing loss had a low-pass rather than a bandpass shape. Excitation patterns revealed that limited spectral resolution dictated modulation detection thresholds at high but not low spectral modulation frequencies. Even when factoring out (presumed) differences in frequency resolution among groups, the spectral envelope perception was worse for the group with moderate hearing loss than the other 3 groups. Conclusions: The spectral envelope perception as measured by spectral modulation detection thresholds is compromised by hearing loss at higher spectral modulation frequencies, consistent with predictions of reduced spectral resolution known to accompany sensorineural hearing loss. Spectral envelope perception is not negatively impacted by advancing age at any spectral modulation frequency between 0.5 and 8.0 cycles/octave.

How aging impacts the encoding of binaural cues and the perception of auditory space.

Over the years, the effect of aging on auditory function has been investigated in animal models and humans in an effort to characterize age-related changes in both perception and physiology. Here, we review how aging may impact neural encoding and processing of binaural and spatial cues in human listeners with a focus on recent work by the authors as well as others. Age-related declines in monaural temporal processing, as estimated from measures of gap detection and temporal fine structure discrimination, have been associated with poorer performance on binaural tasks that require precise temporal processing. In lateralization and localization tasks, as well as in the detection of signals in noise, marked age-related changes have been demonstrated in both behavioral and electrophysiological measures and have been attributed to declines in neural synchrony and reduced central inhibition with advancing age. Evidence for such mechanisms, however, are influenced by the task (passive vs. attending) and the stimulus paradigm (e.g., static vs. continuous with dynamic change). That is, cortical auditory evoked potentials (CAEP) measured in response to static interaural time differences (ITDs) are larger in older versus younger listeners, consistent with reduced inhibition, while continuous stimuli with dynamic ITD changes lead to smaller responses in older compared to younger adults, suggestive of poorer neural synchrony. Additionally, the distribution of cortical activity is broader and less asymmetric in older than younger adults, consistent with the hemispheric asymmetry reduction in older adults model of cognitive aging. When older listeners attend to selected target locations in the free field, their CAEP components (N1, P2, P3) are again consistently smaller relative to younger listeners, and the reduced asymmetry in the distribution of cortical activity is maintained. As this research matures, proper neural biomarkers for changes in spatial hearing can provide objective evidence of impairment and targets for remediation. Future research should focus on the development and evaluation of effective approaches for remediating these spatial processing deficits associated with aging and hearing loss.

Listening Into 2030 Workshop: An Experiment in Envisioning the Future of Hearing and Communication Science.

Here we report the methods and output of a workshop examining possible futures of speech and hearing science out to 2030. Using a design thinking approach, a range of human-centered problems in communication were identified that could provide the motivation for a wide range of research. Nine main research programs were distilled and are summarized: (a) measuring brain and other physiological parameters, (b) auditory and multimodal displays of information, (c) auditory scene analysis, (d) enabling and understanding shared auditory virtual spaces, (e) holistic approaches to health management and hearing impairment, (f) universal access to evolving and individualized technologies, (g) biological intervention for hearing dysfunction, (h) understanding the psychosocial interactions with technology and other humans as mediated by technology, and (i) the impact of changing models of security and privacy. The design thinking approach attempted to link the judged level of importance of different research areas to the "end in mind" through empathy for the real-life problems embodied in the personas created during the workshop.

Reduced temporal processing in older, normal-hearing listeners evident from electrophysiological responses to shifts in interaural time difference.

Previous electrophysiological studies of interaural time difference (ITD) processing have demonstrated that ITDs are represented by a nontopographic population rate code. Rather than narrow tuning to ITDs, neural channels have broad tuning to ITDs in either the left or right auditory hemifield, and the relative activity between the channels determines the perceived lateralization of the sound. With advancing age, spatial perception weakens and poor temporal processing contributes to declining spatial acuity. At present, it is unclear whether age-related temporal processing deficits are due to poor inhibitory controls in the auditory system or degraded neural synchrony at the periphery. Cortical processing of spatial cues based on a hemifield code are susceptible to potential age-related physiological changes. We consider two distinct predictions of age-related changes to ITD sensitivity: declines in inhibitory mechanisms would lead to increased excitation and medial shifts to rate-azimuth functions, whereas a general reduction in neural synchrony would lead to reduced excitation and shallower slopes in the rate-azimuth function. The current study tested these possibilities by measuring an evoked response to ITD shifts in a narrow-band noise. Results were more in line with the latter outcome, both from measured latencies and amplitudes of the global field potentials and source-localized waveforms in the left and right auditory cortices. The measured responses for older listeners also tended to have reduced asymmetric distribution of activity in response to ITD shifts, which is consistent with other sensory and cognitive processing models of aging.

Large cross-sectional study of presbycusis reveals rapid progressive decline in auditory temporal acuity.

The auditory system relies on extraordinarily precise timing cues for the accurate perception of speech, music, and object identification. Epidemiological research has documented the age-related progressive decline in hearing sensitivity that is known to be a major health concern for the elderly. Although smaller investigations indicate that auditory temporal processing also declines with age, such measures have not been included in larger studies. Temporal gap detection thresholds (TGDTs; an index of auditory temporal resolution) measured in 1071 listeners (aged 18-98 years) were shown to decline at a minimum rate of 1.05 ms (15%) per decade. Age was a significant predictor of TGDT when controlling for audibility (partial correlation) and when restricting analyses to persons with normal-hearing sensitivity (n = 434). The TGDTs were significantly better for males (3.5 ms; 51%) than females when averaged across the life span. These results highlight the need for indices of temporal processing in diagnostics, as treatment targets, and as factors in models of aging.

The Effects of Sensorineural Hearing Impairment on Asynchronous Glimpsing of Speech.

In a previous study with normal-hearing listeners, we evaluated consonant identification masked by two or more spectrally contiguous bands of noise, with asynchronous square-wave modulation applied to neighboring bands. Speech recognition thresholds were 5.1-8.5 dB better when neighboring bands were presented to different ears (dichotic) than when all bands were presented to one ear (monaural), depending on the spectral width of the frequency bands. This dichotic advantage was interpreted as reflecting masking release from peripheral spread of masking from neighboring frequency bands. The present study evaluated this effect in listeners with sensorineural hearing loss, a population more susceptible to spread of masking. Speech perception (vowel-consonant-vowel stimuli, as in /aBa/) was measured in the presence of fluctuating noise that was either modulated synchronously across frequency or asynchronously. Hearing-impaired listeners (n = 9) and normal-hearing controls were tested at either the same intensity (n = 7) or same sensation level (n = 8). Hearing-impaired listeners had mild-to-moderate hearing loss and symmetrical, flat audiometric thresholds. While all groups of listeners performed better in the dichotic than monaural condition, this effect was smaller for the hearing-impaired (3.5 dB) and equivalent-sensation-level controls (3.3 dB) than controls tested at the same intensity (11.0 dB). The present study is consistent with the idea that dichotic presentation can improve speech-in-noise listening for hearing-impaired listeners, and may be enhanced when combined with amplification.

The effect of noise fluctuation and spectral bandwidth on gap detection.

Experiment 1 investigated gap detection for random and low-fluctuation noise (LFN) markers as a function of bandwidth (25-1600 Hz), level [40 or 75 dB sound pressure level (SPL)], and center frequency (500-4000 Hz). Gap thresholds for random noise improved as bandwidth increased from 25 to 1600 Hz, but there were only minor effects related to center frequency and level. For narrow bandwidths, thresholds were lower for LFN than random markers; this difference extended to higher bandwidths at the higher center frequencies and was particularly large at high stimulus level. Effects of frequency and level were broadly consistent with the idea that peripheral filtering can increase fluctuation in the encoded LFN stimulus. Experiment 2 tested gap detection for 200-Hz-wide noise bands centered on 2000 Hz, using high-pass maskers to examine spread of excitation effects. Such effects were absent or minor for random noise markers and the 40-dB-SPL LFN markers. In contrast, some high-pass maskers substantially worsened performance for the 75-dB-SPL LFN markers. These results were consistent with an interpretation that relatively acute gap detection for the high-level LFN gap markers resulted from spread of excitation to higher-frequency auditory filters where the magnitude and phase characteristics of the LFN stimuli are better preserved.

Asynchronous glimpsing of speech: spread of masking and task set-size.

Howard-Jones and Rosen [(1993). J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 93, 2915-2922] investigated the ability to integrate glimpses of speech that are separated in time and frequency using a "checkerboard" masker, with asynchronous amplitude modulation (AM) across frequency. Asynchronous glimpsing was demonstrated only for spectrally wide frequency bands. It is possible that the reduced evidence of spectro-temporal integration with narrower bands was due to spread of masking at the periphery. The present study tested this hypothesis with a dichotic condition, in which the even- and odd-numbered bands of the target speech and asynchronous AM masker were presented to opposite ears, minimizing the deleterious effects of masking spread. For closed-set consonant recognition, thresholds were 5.1-8.5 dB better for dichotic than for monotic asynchronous AM conditions. Results were similar for closed-set word recognition, but for open-set word recognition the benefit of dichotic presentation was more modest and level dependent, consistent with the effects of spread of masking being level dependent. There was greater evidence of asynchronous glimpsing in the open-set than closed-set tasks. Presenting stimuli dichotically supported asynchronous glimpsing with narrower frequency bands than previously shown, though the magnitude of glimpsing was reduced for narrower bandwidths even in some dichotic conditions.
