Habituation of the Irrelevant Sound Effect: Evidence for an Attentional Theory of Short-Term Memory Disruption by Bell, Raoul, Roer, Jan P, Dentale, Sandra, Buchner, Axel

“…Immediate serial recall is seriously disrupted by to-be-ignored sound. According to the embedded-processes model, auditory distractors elicit attentional…”

What determines auditory distraction? On the roles of local auditory changes and expectation violations by Röer, Jan P, Bell, Raoul, Buchner, Axel

“…Both the acoustic variability of a distractor sequence and the degree to which it violates expectations are important determinants of auditory distraction. In…”
