Is there evidence that listeners are "confused" about sound-source location when sound sources lie on cones-of-confusion? Two experiments determined whether response times and confidence ratings, as possible indices of "confusion," varied as a function of the frequency of occurrence of cones-of-confusion errors in azimuthal sound-source localization tasks. The results suggest that for sound-source localization judgments on an azimuth plane, there is little evidence that response times or confidence ratings vary with the frequency of occurrence of cones-of-confusion errors, consistent with the assumption that listeners are not "confused" in making sound-source location judgments when sound sources are on an azimuthal cone-of-confusion.
当声源位于混淆锥上时，是否有证据表明听众对声源位置感到“困惑”？两项实验确定了作为“困惑”可能指标的反应时间和置信度评分是否会随着方位声源定位任务中混淆锥错误出现频率的变化而变化。结果表明，对于方位平面上的声源定位判断，几乎没有证据表明反应时间或置信度评分会随着混淆锥错误出现频率的变化而变化，这与当声源位于方位混淆锥上时听众在进行声源位置判断时不会“困惑”这一假设一致。
