  1. Ignoring the Elephant in the Room: Counter-acting the effects of saliency EEG Experiment #1: Task: Duration judgment comparing two complex acoustic scenes with embedded salient distractors Analysis: Compare neural response power of distractors vs. backgrounds across EEG channels Discussion: Data suggests that a duration judgment task tends to suppress neural responses of salient distractorsthat are irrelevant for the task (consistent with results in the visual system[1]) VERY preliminary results [1] C.
