Appearance of a change is more salient than its removal in complex acoustic stimuli
Evidence
We chose to use an increment of the marginal distribution in two adjacent frequency bins on the basis that an appearance is more salient than its opposite in a complex acoustic stimulus (Constantino et al. 2012 ). — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 3291
