Acoustic environments are composed of complex overlapping sounds that the auditory system is required to segregate into discrete perceptual objects. The functions of distinct auditory processing stations in this challenging task are poorly understood...

Relating approach-to-target and detection tasks in animal psychoacoustics (2016)
Journal Article
Sumner, C., Sollini, J., & Alves-Pinto, A. (2016). Relating approach-to-target and detection tasks in animal psychoacoustics. Behavioral Neuroscience, 130(4), 393-405. https://doi.org/10.1037/bne0000143

Psychophysical experiments seek to measure the limits of perception. While straightforward in humans, in animals they are time consuming. Choosing an appropriate task and interpreting measurements can be challenging. We investigated the localization...

Behavioural estimates of auditory filter widths in ferrets using notched-noise maskers (2016)
Journal Article
Sumner, C., Alves-Pinto, A., Sollini, J., & Wells, T. (2016). Behavioural estimates of auditory filter widths in ferrets using notched-noise maskers. Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 139(2), EL19-EL24. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.4941772

Frequency selectivity is a fundamental property of hearing which affects almost all aspects of auditory processing. Here auditory filter widths at 1, 3, 7, and 10 kHz were estimated from behavioural thresholds using the notched-noise method [Patterso...
