Ad esempio nell'Enciclopedia delle religioni in Italia, gli autori, nell'approccio al protestantesimo, hanno identificato diverse categorie, o «protestantesimi». Nel quadro di questa proposta tipologica la Chiesa cristiana avventista del settimo giorno si pone come esponente di spicco, ma non l'unico, all'interno del «protestantesimo...

Binaural fusion

Binaural fusion or binaural integration is a cognitive process that involves the combination of different auditory information presented binaurally, or to each ear. In humans, this process is essential in understanding speech as one ear may pick up more information about the speech stimuli than the other. The process of binaural fusion is important for computing the location of sound sources in the horizontal plane (sound localization), and it is important for sound segregation.[1] So...
