    Area of Science:

    • Auditory perception
    • Psychoacoustics
    • Signal processing

    Background:

    • Auditory gap detection is crucial for speech comprehension and sound localization.
    • Understanding how signal parameters influence gap detection is essential for auditory models.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the influence of signal duration and frequency disparity on auditory gap detection thresholds.
    • To determine how signal intensity affects gap detection performance.

    Main Methods:

    • Participants identified auditory complexes containing a temporal gap.
    • Varying signal durations (up to 300 ms), frequency disparities (up to 120 Hz), and signal intensities were employed.

    Main Results:

    • Gap detection remained constant with duration when frequencies were identical.
    • Increased frequency disparity elevated gap thresholds for signals longer than 10 ms.
    • Longer signal durations exacerbated the negative impact of frequency disparity.
    • Higher signal intensity improved gap detection thresholds.

    Conclusions:

    • Auditory gap detection is sensitive to the interplay between signal duration and frequency disparity.
    • Signal intensity plays a significant role in overcoming temporal resolution limitations.
