ABSTRACTAlthough spatial hearing is of great importance in everyday life, today’s routine audiological test batteries and static test setups assess sound localization, discrimination and tracking abilities rudimentarily and thus provide only a limited interpretation of treatment outcomes regarding spatial hearing performance. To address this limitation, we designed a dynamic sound field test setup and evaluated the sound localization, discrimination and tracking performance of 12 normal-hearing subjects. During testing, participants provided feedback either through a touchpad or through eye tracking. In addition, the influence of head movement on sound-tracking performance was investigated. Our results show that tracking and discrimination performance was significantly better in the frontal azimuth than in the dorsal azimuth. Particularly good performance was observed in the backward direction across localization, discrimination and tracking tests. As expected, free head movement improved sound-tracking abilities. Furthermore, feedback via gaze detection led to larger tracking errors than feedback via the touchpad. We found statistically significant correlations between the static and dynamic tests, which favor the snapshot theory for auditory motion perception.
