Contralateral threshold shift has been investigated as a function of frequency difference between the masking and test tones. The obtained curves of frequency distribution indicate complex underlying processes. Both the masker intensity and the time delay from the masker onset affect the absolute amount as well as the frequency distribution of central masking. The frequency spread of masking appears consistent with the critical-band measures at medium masker levels but not at high and low levels.
