Auditory perception

My interests are in auditory perception and cognition. My work has included studies of the perception of complex non-speech sounds, speech perception, music perception, and individual differences in auditory capabilities. A major theme has been the identification of the role of temporal structure in the discrimination and identification of auditory patterns.
