Frequency and frequency-ratio resolution by possessors of absolute and relative pitch: examples of categorical perception.
The methodology derived from the trace-context theory of intensity resolution (Durlach and Braida, 1969; Macmillan et al., 1988) was applied to resolution over an octave range along two continua: a sequential-frequency-ratio continuum for possessors of relative pitch (RP), and a pure-tone frequency continuum for possessors of absolute pitch (AP). The performance of both RP and AP possessors was...
متن کاملAbsolute Pitch and L Tone Perception by Non-mu Absolute Pitch Non-tonal
In this paper we investigate whether musically trained nontonal language speakers perceive lexical tone better than their non-musician counterparts. Three groups of English language speakers, non-musicians, musicians, and musicians with absolute pitch (n=24, N=72), were tested for same/different discrimination of Central Thai tone pairs. These were presented in three separate conditions: as spe...
متن کاملElectrophysiological correlates of absolute pitch and relative pitch.
The temporal and spatial characteristics of the cortical processes responsible for absolute pitch (AP) and relative pitch (RP) were investigated by multi-channel event-related potentials (ERPs). Compared to listening, pitch-naming of tones in non-possessors of AP elicited three ERP components (P3b, parietal positive slow wave, frontal negative slow wave) over parietal and frontal scalp between ...
متن کاملAbsolute pitch: perception, coding, and controversies.
Recent findings in cognitive neuroscience and cognitive psychology are converging to shed light on the nature of processing, categorization and memory for pitch in humans and animals. Although most people are unable to name or place pitch values in consistent, well-defined categories, as they do for color, stable long-term memory for pitch has been shown in certain animal species, in infants, a...
متن کاملRelative cues and absolute distance perception.
I I t is possible, in theory, for the simultaneous occurrence of several different relative cues i of distances to increase the veridicality of the perception of absolute distance. To test whether I this actually occurs, a three-dimensional display was viewed monocularly while moving the head laterally, under conditions in which some error in perceived absolute distance was expected. The percei...
