Across-frequency interference effects in fundamental frequency discrimination: questioning evidence for two pitch mechanisms.
Carlyon and Shackleton [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 95, 3541-3554 (1994)] presented an influential study supporting the existence of two pitch mechanisms, one for complex tones containing resolved and one for complex tones containing only unresolved components. The current experiments provide an alternative explanation for their finding, namely the existence of across-frequency interference in fundamen...
متن کاملPredicting Achievable Fundamental Frequency Ranges in Vocalization Across Species
Vocal folds are used as sound sources in various species, but it is unknown how vocal fold morphologies are optimized for different acoustic objectives. Here we identify two main variables affecting range of vocal fold vibration frequency, namely vocal fold elongation and tissue fiber stress. A simple vibrating string model is used to predict fundamental frequency ranges across species of diffe...
متن کاملFrequency discrimination in regions of normal and impaired sensitivity.
Psychometric functions for frequency discrimination were obtained from both normal-hearing and hearing-impaired listeners at 300, 1200, and 3000 Hz. Difference limens for frequency (DLFs) were derived from those psychometric functions after repeated practice sessions, ensuring that all listener's results represented levels of optimum performance. Practice effects were found to be considerable i...
متن کاملDifference limen for formant frequency discrimination at high fundamental frequencies
In previous studies of formant frequency discrimination, variation in the stimuli has mainly concerned the formant frequencies while other factors which may affect formant frequency discrimination have largely been ignored. In most studies, fundamental frequencies typical of adult male speakers have been used. In the study presented here, formant frequency discrimination as a function of fundam...
متن کاملHarmonic segregation through mistuning can improve fundamental frequency discrimination.
This study investigated the relationship between harmonic frequency resolution and fundamental frequency (f(0)) discrimination. Consistent with earlier studies, f(0) discrimination of a diotic bandpass-filtered harmonic complex deteriorated sharply as the f(0) decreased to the point where only harmonics above the tenth were presented. However, when the odd harmonics were mistuned by 3%, perform...
