Successive Responses to Simultaneous Stimuli

Broadbent, D. E.·1956·Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology

Abstract

Previous work had shown that, when a memory-span experiment is performed with half the items presented to one ear, and half simultaneously to the other, a certain order of response appears. Either one ear or the other is dealt with first, and then the remaining items produce a response afterwards. The present results extend this finding to the eye and the ear rather than the two ears, and also to two voices distinguished by their frequency characteristics. For the latter condition, it is also shown that alternation of attention can take place at a speed faster than between the two ears. The effect thus appears to be a general one, and not merely a peculiarity of binaural hearing.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
