Speech and Other Auditory Modules

The several auditory modules fall into two classes, open and closed, according to the kind of perceptual representations they produce (for example, pitch and loudness versus localized sound-sources and speech) and in the way they adapt to environmental influences. Given the nature of these classes, they can hardly have equal access to the flow of stimulus information, as they would if they were in parallel. A more suitable architecture would allow the closed modules to preempt just the information that is of interest to them, and so prevent it from reaching the open modules at all. In the case of speech, there is evidence that such preemption does occur.
