A prediction based on the model of attention advanced by Dixon (1971) was tested: namely, that responses to homophones presented to one ear, at supraliminal intensities, would be influenced by subliminal cue words presented to the other ear. Considerable support was found for the hypothesis in terms of response latencies, but not in terms of verbal content. It is suggested that these data make it possible to reconcile apparent discrepancies between the results of other recent studies of dichotic listening.
