Kurzfassung:
Twelve female normal listeners, all right-handed, heard rhyming pairs of (stop+/a/) nonsense syllables dichotically and monotically. Word onsets were simultaneous, then shifted by 15, 30, 60, and 90 msec. Each subject heard 600 pairs. Monotically, the lag-syllable discriminations were poor at all delays with differences leveling off at 30 msec (93% lead vs 19% lag). Dichotically, lag-ear discrimination was roughly 22% better for all lag times when the right ear lagged. [First found by Shankweiler and Studdert-Kennedy, personal communication.] Left-ear lag scores improved and overcame the right-ear advantage only after 30-msec delay. Total right-ear scores for entire dichotic portion of experiment (M=77%) exceeded total left-ear scores (M=66%) thus maintaining an over-all right-ear laterality effect. Thus, previous experimenters who allowed as much as 90-msec delay to be randomly distributed among their so-called “simultaneous pairs” might still have expected to find a right-ear laterality effect.
