Electrophysiological Analog of the Interaural Time-Intensity Trade

Abstract

Variations in the amplitude and polarity of evoked potentials with differences in intensity and arrival time of clicks delivered to the 2 ears were recorded from the superior-olivary nucleus in cats with chronically implanted electrodes. An analog of the "time-intensity" trade was seen in the cancellation of evoked potentials when time and intensity differences were opposed.
