Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) It has been known that in a situation where tone and noise are presented at once, the perceived direction of the tone is shifted to the opposite direction of the noise. In this study, two factors; frequency overlapping, or level difference of two sounds were investigated. The experiment was based on a subjective sound localization task to the designated sound source among two sound sources. The target sound was a tone, and the distractor sound was notched noise. The "opposite direction shift" phenomenon was observed for the cases where the distractor had a larger level than the target, or is overlapping with the target frequency. These results suggest that the "opposite direction shift" phenomenon is related to distractor's "saliency".
