Pitch discrimination of patterned electric stimulation.
One reason for the poor pitch performance in current cochlear-implant users may be the highly synchronized neural firing in electric hearing that lacks stochastic properties of neural firing in normal acoustic hearing. This study used three different electric stimulation patterns, jittered, probabilistic, and auditory-model-generated pulses, to mimic some aspects of the normal neural firing pat...
متن کاملTone Language Fluency Impairs Pitch Discrimination
Here we present evidence that native speakers of a tone language, in which pitch contributes to word meaning, are impaired in the discrimination of falling pitches in tone sequences, as compared to speakers of a non-tone language. Both groups were presented with monotonic and isochronous sequences of five tones (i.e., constant pitch and intertone interval). They were required to detect when the...
متن کاملVocal pitch discrimination in the motor system.
Speech production can be broadly separated into two distinct components: Phonation and Articulation. These two aspects require the efficient control of several phono-articulatory effectors. Speech is indeed generated by the vibration of the vocal-folds in the larynx (F0) followed by ''filtering" by articulators, to select certain resonant frequencies out of that wave (F1, F2, F3, etc.). Recentl...
متن کاملPhrase-Final Pitch Discrimination in English
We investigate the discrimination of phrase final pitch contours within a continuum from statement to question in English. Previous work in German [14] and Dutch [13] has raised questions about the relationship between discrimination sensitivity and category structure within this continuum. To clarify the relationship between linguistic category and simple auditory discrimination, we employ bot...
متن کاملDifficulties with Pitch Discrimination Influences Pitch Memory Performance: Evidence from Congenital Amusia
Music processing is influenced by pitch perception and memory. Additionally these features interact, with pitch memory performance decreasing as the perceived distance between two pitches decreases. This study examined whether or not the difficulty of pitch discrimination influences pitch retention by testing individuals with congenital amusia. Pitch discrimination difficulty was equated by det...
