An investigation of interaural time difference fluctuations, part 1: the subjective spatial effect of fluctuations delivered over headphones

The subjective spatial effect of noise signals with sinusoidal ITD fluctuations was investigated. Both verbal and non-verbal elicitation experiments were carried out to examine the subjective effect of the ITD fluctuations with a number of fluctuation frequencies and fluctuation magnitudes. It was found that the predominant effect of increasing the fluctuation magnitude was an increase in the perceived width of the sound.
