On the Effect of High Stimulation Rates on Temporal Loudness Integration in Cochlear Implant Users.

Long stimuli have lower detection thresholds or are perceived louder than short stimuli with the same intensity, an effect known as temporal loudness integration (TLI). In electric hearing, TLI for pulse trains with a fixed rate but varying number of pulses, i.e.

Eccentric eye and head positions in darkness induce deviation from the intended path.

Head and gaze are aligned with the actual path during locomotion. Before a turn is made, gaze changes in the direction of the planned trajectory. We investigated whether eccentric horizontal head and/or eye position without vision causes deviations from the intended straight path.
