Fig. 8.

Top, Group mean SRTs in unilateral and bilateral listening. Each panel is for a different strategy, as indicated at the top of the panel. Bottom, Mean binaural advantage calculated as the difference in mean SRT for unilateral listening minus bilateral listening. Positive values indicate better (lower) SRTs when listening with two rather one ear. Error bars illustrate 1 standard error of the mean. MOC indicates medial olivocochlear; MOC1, original fast MOC strategy; MOC2, slower MOC strategy; MOC3, slower MOC strategy with comparatively greater contralateral inhibition in the lower-frequency than in the higher-frequency channels; N, noise; S, speech; SRT, speech reception threshold; STD, standard.
