“This was surprising. It turns out that when you slow down a word, the auditory cortex doesn't change the time window it is processing. It's like the auditory cortex is integrating across this fixed time scale.” #URochesterResearch
Millisecond Windows of Time May Be Key to How We Hear, Study Finds
What happens when you listen to speech at a different speed? Neuroscientists thought that your brain may turn up its processing speed as well. But it turns out that at least the auditory part of the b...

Temporal integration in human auditory cortex is predominantly yoked to absolute time - Nature Neuroscience
Temporal integration throughout the human auditory cortex is predominantly locked to absolute time and does not vary with the duration of speech structures such as phonemes or words.
