Measuring suppression with short suppressor tones reveals more suppression than long tones

Evidence

Both younger and older adults in the present study showed significantly more suppression measured with short combined maskers than with longer combined maskers. Several of the older participants, who had no measurable suppression with the longer combined masker, had a small amount of suppression measured with the shorter combined masker. — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 959
