Selective Attention:At the heart of the Cocktail Party Effect is the concept of selective attention. This is the brain’s remarkable capability to home in on specific auditory stimuli while tuning out the surrounding auditory clutter. It allows us to concentrate on a single conversation or sound ...
鸡尾酒会效应(cocktail party effect),也叫选择性关注(selective attention),是指人的一种听力选择能力,在这种情况下,注意力集中在某一个人的谈话之中而忽略背景中其他的对话或噪音。该效应揭示了人类听觉系统中令人惊奇的能力,使我们可以在噪声中谈话。鸡尾酒会效应能够让多数人将很多其他无关的声音关掉,只选择听自...
You can say thanks to the “cocktail party effect” for that! What is The Cocktail Party Effect? Sometimes called “selective hearing” or “selective attention,” the cocktail party effect is a phenomenon that refers to our ability to focus on one specific auditory stimuli while filtering ...
Cocktail partyMultivariate pattern analysis (MVPA)Selective attentionSemanticsfMRIRecent studies utilizing electrophysiological speech envelope reconstruction have sparked renewed interest in the cocktail party effect by showing that auditory neurons entrain to selectively attended speech. Yet, the neural networks ...
However, since both the shadowing task and the listening task demanded attention to the relevant speech sounds, we included visual and motor control tasks to determine the effect of attention to the speech stimuli. In the resulting factorial design, the shadowing task demanded selective attention to...
In contrast, high musicality listeners showed less susceptibility to this informational masking effect, indicating that they were more resilient in difficult listening conditions. Successful “cocktail party” listening requires successful selective attention (Oberfeld & Klöckner-Nowotny, 2016). Attention ...
We focus not on questions of causality, which require longitudinal studies with random assignment to musical vs. nonmusical training, but rather on attempting to deter- mine whether musicians show benefits for selective listening in a cocktail-party like listening task. Unlike most previous studies,...
selective attention, which generated influential early “filter” models (Broadbent,1958; Treisman,1964; Deutsch & Deutsch,1963). Later work on attention has predominantly focused on the visual modality and it was not until relatively recently that further progress was made in understanding how ...
Hematophagy arose independently multiple times during metazoan evolution, with several lineages of vampire animals particularly diversified in invertebrates. However, the biochemistry of hematophagy has been studied in a few species of direct medical int
Cocktail party effectSelective spatial attentionAuditory evoked potentialsDetecting, localizing, and selectively attending to a particular sound source of interest in complex auditory scenes composed of multiple competing sources is a remarkable capacity of the human auditory system. The neural basis of ...
