Popis: | Summary The phi correlation coefficient is proposed as an index of ear differences in dichotic listening tests. It is proposed specifically for the two-response paradigm, where, as an index of ear difference over all trials, it would be statistically appropriate for correlation with overall performance. Using the same computational formula, the phi index may also be applied to the results of a one-response, directed-recall listening test. The interest of the phi index lies in the fact that for a constant size of response set and number of dichotic trials, its values may be directly compared for statistical significance. |
