Age-Related Improvements in Auditory Backward and Simultaneous Masking in 6- to 10-Year-Old Children

Age-Related Improvements in Auditory Backward and Simultaneous Masking in 6- to 10-Year-Old Children

A study involving 36 children and 10 adults investigated development of auditory frequency and temporal resolution using simultaneous and backward masking of a tone. On the measure of frequency resolution, 6- year-olds performed as well as adults. However, for the backward masking task, 6-year-olds...

Zusammenfassung:A study involving 36 children and 10 adults investigated development of auditory frequency and temporal resolution using simultaneous and backward masking of a tone. On the measure of frequency resolution, 6- year-olds performed as well as adults. However, for the backward masking task, 6-year-olds had higher threshold than adults. (Contains references.)
