Precision of Auditory Localization in Human Infants.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Ashmead, Daniel H.; And Others – Developmental Psychology, 1987
Study measures the precision of auditory localization in 26- to 30-week-old infants using the adult minimum audible angle test. Results show that infants discriminate sound displacements of about 19 degrees, considerably less accurate than adult values of one to two degrees. (Author/RWB)

An Observer-Based Psychoacoustic Procedure for Use with Young Infants.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Olsho, Lynne Werner; And Others – Developmental Psychology, 1987
Describes observer-based technique for assessing auditory capacities of infants from three to 12 months of age. This technique, referred to as the Observation-based Psychoacoustic Procedure (OPP), combines features of the Forced-choice Preferential Looking Technique and of the Visual Reinforcement Audiometry. Pure-tone detection and frequency…

Observational Measures of Auditory Sensitivity in Early Infancy.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Trehub, Sandra E.; And Others – Developmental Psychology, 1991
A modification of the observer-based psychoacoustic procedure was used to estimate the detectability of auditory signals by infants. Data from infants up to 3.5 months of age revealed improvement in performance as a function of increasing signal intensity and age. (BC)
