PSYC 3530 Final Exam (Dr. Katz - Auburn)
Questions With Correct Answers
Necessary factors for sound localization - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔--
| | | | | | | |
distance of object
| |
- direction of object
| | |
Sound localization is provided by: - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-- monaural
| | | | | | | | |
cues
- binaural cues
| |
Monaural cues (one ear) - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-- distance based on
| | | | | | | | | |
loudness of object | |
- distance based on shift in frequency
| | | | | |
Directionally dependent symmetry - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-
| | | | |
overestimate change in sound from approaching object relative to
| | | | | | | | |
receding object |
Doppler shift - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-a change in the frequency (pitch)
| | | | | | | | | |
of a moving sound source relative to a stationary listener
| | | | | | | | |
,Binaural cues (two ears) - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-- interaural time
| | | | | | | | |
difference
- interaural intensity (level) difference
| | | |
Interaural time difference - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-the time difference
| | | | | | | |
produced when a sound reaches one ear before the other
| | | | | | | | |
Where are the ITD detectors found? - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-olivary
| | | | | | | | |
nucleus
Precedence effect - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-the perception of the sound
| | | | | | | | |
reaching the ears from the farther of the two identical sound sources
| | | | | | | | | | | |
will be suppressed with regard to its localization
| | | | | | |
Interaural intensity (level) difference - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-the
| | | | | | |
intensity difference produced when the sound reaching one ear is of a
| | | | | | | | | | | |
different intensity than the sound reaching the other ear
| | | | | | | |
Sound shadow - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-an area of less intensity for
| | | | | | | | | |
sound waves that must travel across the head
| | | | | | |
What happens when a sound source is located on the median plane? -
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-the sound is the same distance from each ear,
| | | | | | | | | |
and we need to move our head to accurately localize the object
| | | | | | | | | | |
, Echolocation - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-the use of self-produced echoes
| | | | | | | |
to gain location information
| | |
Animals that utilize echolocation - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-- small brown
| | | | | | | | |
bat (tapping pulses)
| |
- silver-haired bat (timing pulse and changing frequency)
| | | | | | |
- mexican free-tailed bat (higher pitch pulses)
| | | | | |
- british noctule bat (sounds like rap music)
| | | | | | |
- dolphins, whales
| |
Two types of pulses in echolocation - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-- constant
| | | | | | | | | |
frequency pulse (detecting targets, measuring Doppler Shift)
| | | | | |
- frequency modulated pulse (target distance)
| | | | |
Echo delayed-tune neurons - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-process the time
| | | | | | | |
interval between the emission of a tonal pulse by the bat and the return
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
|of its echo after the pulse strikes the object
| | | | | | | |
Why do porpoise use echolocation? - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-to slow
| | | | | | | | |
down fish in order to help them eat
| | | | | | |
