Theories of Pitch Perception

Theories of Pitch Perception

Frage 1 von 6

1

What is the place theories main assumption?

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • The place along the basilar membrane that vibrates the most, determines what pitch is percieved

  • It is the place in the cochlea, either the vestibular canal, tympanic canal or scala media, which vibrates most that determines what pitch is percieved

  • The place in auditory space in which the sound is conceived determines what pitch is percieved

  • The place along the sound wave that reaches the ear first determines what pitch is percieved

Erklärung

Frage 2 von 6

1

Name three areas of evidence for place theory: (a), (b) and (c).

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • (a) Observations of the travelling wave
    (b) Stimulated deafness experiments
    (c) Frequency-specific hearing loss

  • FOR MORE INFORMATION READ THE HAND-WRITTEN NOTES

  • (a) Comparisons of basilar membrane between humans and dogs
    (b) Stimulated deafness experiments
    (c) Experiments on deaf people

1

Three pieces of evidence against Place Theory: (a), (b) and (c)

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • (a) Insufficient explanation for complex sounds
    (b) The missing fundamental
    (c) Ability to perceive pitch from broadband stimuli

  • FOR MORE INFORMATION PLEASE SEE NOTES

  • (a) The missing fundamental
    (b) Not all frequencies have been found to have a "place" on the basilar membrane
    (c) Ability to perceive pitch from broadband stimuli

Erklärung

Frage 4 von 6

1

What is the main assumption of Temporal (Frequency) Theory?

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • The rate of vibration of the stimulus determines the perceived pitch

  • The frequency that is most prominent in an auditory stimulus determines the perceived pitch

  • Higher frequencies are associated with an increased perception of pitch and decreased frequencies are associated with a lower pitch perception

  • More frequently heard stimuli are perceived more clearly in terms of their pitch
