The Stenger effect is the biopsychoacoustic phenomenon by which a sound of the same frequency, when presented simultaneously to each ear but with different amplitudes between the ears, will only be perceived as being on the side of the louder stimulus. This phenomenon is used as part of the Stenger test to detect feigned asymmetry in hearing.

Stenger Effect and the Stenger Test

  • Marcello Cherchi

摘要

The Stenger effect is the biopsychoacoustic phenomenon by which a sound of the same frequency, when presented simultaneously to each ear but with different amplitudes between the ears, will only be perceived as being on the side of the louder stimulus. This phenomenon is used as part of the Stenger test to detect feigned asymmetry in hearing.
