For months, I've been dying to share this auditory Rorschach-like interpretation with someone else, but thought better of it to avoid the incredulous looks I was sure I would get.
This conflicting interpretation of auditory selective attention on the auditory ERP provided by the attentional gain theory (Hillyard) and the attentional trace theory (Näätänen) triggered a long-lasting debate and plenty of interesting experiments.
However, the interpretation of auditory ERPs in children is complicated by the fact that auditory areas of the brain continue to develop into the teens (Moore, 2002) and this is reflected in changes in the long-latency auditory ERP (Eggermont & Ponton, 2003; Wunderlich & Cone-Wesson, 2006).
These were the CBM as used by Blackwell and Holmes (2010), with imagery generation of interpretations via auditory stimuli ('IGen-Auditory'), an imagery generation of interpretations via pictorial stimuli ('IGen-Picture') CBM as described by Holmes et al. (2008) and a CBM of appraisals (Lang, Moulds, & Holmes, 2009).
Known as distortion products (DPs), these added frequencies complicate the interpretation of auditory experiments.
Our interpretation of auditory events is dependent on the context in which they occur.
Hearing directly affects stability by the detection and interpretation of auditory stimuli which help orient a person in space.
The first is a distributed bihemispheric system, involved in the lexical, semantic, and pragmatic interpretation of auditory inputs.
What's more, H.V.N. groups must accept all interpretations of auditory hallucinations as equally valid.
Patients underwent a comprehensive general neuropsychological assessment in order to provide background data and to assist interpretation of the experimental auditory battery.
These findings are consistent with the interpretation that the perception of auditory motion has been shaped in part by the environmental challenges posed by our ancestors and that the auditory looming bias adaptation is specific to the conditions that pose the greatest potential for danger.
