| Abstract: |
Compares behavioral and electrophysiological indices of spatial tuning within central and peripheral auditory space in congenitally blind and normally sighted, but blindfolded adults to test the hypothesis that the effects of visual deprivation might be more pronounced for processing peripheral sounds. Findings and discoveries; Suggestions. |
