A: Illustration of the sound stimuli used in this experiment. After an initial constant sound pressure level [SPL] segment of 300 ms, SPL rises (or falls) over 1000 ms; the sound terminates with another segment of constant SPL. B: Intra-trial procedure. Our analysis focuses on responses to the sound. Participants were instructed to blink only in designated periods between sounds. A visual task was introduced between sound presentations to increase alertness and render the eye blink task plausible to the participant. C: Global sound responses to all sound stimuli, for all sensors. The intensity change segment of the sound was between 300 and 1300 ms.
