Round 18: Tossup 4

This ability employs an “old-plus-new” heuristic, according to a “scene analysis” of it proposed by Albert Bregman. This ability is [emphasize] dominated in the Colavita effect. This ability involves processing “temporal envelope” and “temporal fine structure” cues, and is disrupted in the Franssen effect. Classical theories of this ability include the “volley theory” and the (10[1])“place theory.” A “dichotic” (10[2])use of this ability (10[1]-5[1])names an experimental (10[1])task (10[2]-5[1])that provided evidence for a “filter model” of attention (10[2]-5[1])proposed (-5[2])by Donald Broadbent. The cortex governing this ability is organized as a “tonotopic map” (10[1])and is found near Wernicke’s (“VERN-ih-kee’s”) area in the temporal lobe. (-5[1])The use of selective attention in this ability is shown (10[2]-5[1])in the cocktail party effect. (10[3]-5[2])For 10 points, name this sense, which can be fooled by Shepherd tones and other musical (10[1])illusions. (10[1])■END■ (10[7])
