Sound localization with conflicting visual and auditory cues.

Abstract
97 Ss were required to locate the direction of a sound under conditions of conflicting visual and auditory cues and under control conditions with eyes closed. "S's perception of the sound was markedly affected by whether or not he saw its source of origin" (E's mouth). Individual differences were marked under experimental conditions. Women tended to rely more on visual cues than men. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved)
