Does fundamental-frequency discrimination measure virtual pitch discrimination? [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2010 Studies of pitch perception often involve measuring difference limens for complex tones (DLCs) that differ in fundamental frequency (F0). These measures are thought to reflect F0 discrimination and to provide an indirect measure of subjective pitch strength. However, in many situations discrimination may be based on cues other than the pitch or the F0,

Native Experience with a Tone Language Enhances Pitch Discrimination and the Timing of Neural Responses to Pitch Change [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2011 Native tone language experience has been linked with alterations in the production and perception of pitch in language, as well as with the brain response to linguistic and non-linguistic tones.

Auditory brainstem implant pitch discrimination and auditory outcome
Acta Oto-Laryngologica Case Reports, 2022 We present a pitch discrimination test performed by five experienced adult auditory brainstem implant (ABI) users with neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2). The ability to discriminate frequency/pitch from different channels on the implant may be an important ...

Pitch Processing in Children with Williams Syndrome: Relationships between Music and Prosody Skills
Brain Sciences, 2014 Williams syndrome (WS), a genetic neurodevelopmental disorder, has been taken as evidence that music and language constitute separate modules. This research focused on the linguistic component of prosody and aimed to assess whether relationships exist ...

Speaker-sex discrimination for voiced and whispered vowels at short durations [PDF]
, 2016 Whispered vowels, produced with no vocal fold vibration, lack the periodic temporal fine structure which in voiced vowels underlies the perceptual attribute of pitch (a salient auditory cue to speaker sex).
