Abstract

In two experiments we examined the effects of training on auditory perception bias (Experiment 1), the relationship between auditory perception bias and global-local processing (Experiment 2), as well as the relationship between global-local auditory processing, empathy and self-construal (Experiment 2). The present findings are discussed in relation to their implications for research in auditory perception and the perception of others’ emotional states.
