Table S2.

The means and SDs of the perceptual discriminability ratings for the manipulated stimuli and the paired-sample t tests between experimental trials (manipulated stimuli) and controls

Stimuli and controls Frequency spectrum manipulation Intensity manipulation Rate manipulation
Mean (SD) t Tests against controls Mean (SD) t Tests against controls Mean (SD) t Tests against controls
Human 1.62 (0.32) t = 16.83 1.59 (0.36) t = 16.87 1.62 (0.32) t = 16.83
Animal 1.85 (0.22) t = 29.98 1.32 (0.36) t = 13.16 1.85 (0.22) t = 29.98
Machine 1.72 (0.30) t = 25.30 1.59 (0.36) t = 16.81 1.72 (0.30) t = 25.30
Nature 1.30 (0.44) t = 11.10 1.42 (0.43) t = 13.46 1.30 (0.44) t = 11.10
Control 0.17 (±0.15)

Note: The rating for the control was the average rating across all manipulation-types. The ratings for rate manipulations were the average ratings across long and short versions. All Ps < 0.001.
