Interaural correlation-change detection is a viable temporal processing measure

Evidence

Duration thresholds were obtained for detecting a change in interaural correlation (from 0 to 1) in the initial portion of a 1-s broadband (0–10 kHz) noise presented simultaneously to both ears. A three-down, one-up 2AFC procedure with 12 reversals, of which the last eight were used to estimate the threshold, was used. — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 1240
