DOI: https://doi.org/10.1101/2024.02.13.579526

Experiment 1: Original (OR), Phase Randomized (PR), Spectrum Equalized (SE) Data

825 Foreground Sounds
825 Background Sounds
BehavioralDataExp1.mat
- BackSoundNum: (1-11) as shown in paper (1x825 trials)
- BackCondition: 'OR' 'PR' 'SE' (1x825 trials)
- SNR: Signal-to-Noise-Ratio Value Between Fore and Back (1x825 trials)
- Resp: Behavioral Response (18 participants x 825 trials) - 0 (incorrect response), 1 (correct response)

Supplemental Audio

Audio 1
- Example audio excerpts for each of the 33 background conditions for Experiment 1. All of the three-digit sequences are delivered at an SNR -9 dB. Exemplars for each of the 11 background sound conditions are organized in a directory corresponding to the experimental manipulation performed (OR, PR, SE). Sounds are numbered from 1 to 11 in rank order according to the perceptual accuracy, as shown in paper (Sound01.wav, Sound02.wav, etc.).
Audio 2
- Example audio excerpts for each of the background conditions for Experiment 2. The background conditions include the babble-8 and jackhammer backgrounds delivered at variable SNR and variable statistics (Spec, +Mar, +MPS, +Corr, and Orig). Sounds are organized in subdirectories corresponding to the SNR condition (-12, -9, -6, and -3 dB) and background name (EightSpeakerBabble or Jackhammer) and are labeled according to the summary statistics used to synthesize the background (SoundSpec.wav, SoundMar.wav, SoundMPS.wav, SoundCorr.wav, SoundOrig.wav).

Description	This is a supporting dataset for the manuscript "Low-dimensional interference of mid-level sound statistics predicts human speech recognition in natural environmental noise". The dataset itself is comprised of three psychoacoustic experiments that investigate human speech recognition in differing natural enviornments. In the first experiment, (n=18) participants recognize spoken digit triplets in the presence of 11 natural backgrounds, and acoustically perturbed variants that whiten the the modulation content (Phase Randomized, PR) or the spectrum content (Spectrum Equalized, SE) of the sound. In the second experiment, (n=16) participants recognize spoken digit triplets in the presence of the Jackhammer Sound or the 8 Speaker Babble sound, that have been perturbed by gradually added texture statistics (McDermott 2011). In the third experiment, (n=9) participants recognize spoken digit triplets in the presence of 11 natural backgrounds at 7 different, signal-to-noise ratios. The supported data will be able to replicate the psychoacoustic results presented in the paper, in addition to serving as the input for the logistic regression model used in subsequent analysis. The repository contains Audio Files (.wav format) and Behavioral Data (MATLAB .mat format).
