Cocktail party effect
Revision as of 10:14, 10 June 2009 by Wohlgemuth (talk | contribs)
In phonetics, a cocktail party effect is a binaural hearing (using both ears) which helps us to separate interesting sounds from a background of irrelevant noise.
Example
In a room where several conversations are taking place, one can focus on one of them and ignore the rest.
