  • Separate analyses were done for the PAMs on the sides of the head where tone bursts and chirps were presented. The table provides F-values, p-values, and standardized effect sizes as partial eta-squared (ηp2 ) for the within-subject factors of PAM location (left PAM vs right PAM), listening condition (direct attention toward side of PAM vs direct attention away from side of PAM), and time (first trial segment vs last trial segment) as well as their interactions. Asterisks denote statistical significance at different significance levels (*p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01).
