Comparison between pitch discrimination in normal children, children with hearing aids, and children with cochlear implant

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology, 2019
Background Cochlear hearing loss causes variations in the way that sounds are represented in the auditory system and for cochlear implant (Cl) users, pitch information that is transmitted to the central nervous system is not ideal.

Assessing intonation skills in a tertiary music training programme [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
[Abstract]: Buttsworth, Fogarty, and Rorke (1993) reported the construction of a battery of tonal tests designed to assess intonation abilities. A subset of the tests in the battery predicted 36 per cent of final scores in an aural training subject in a ...

Sound frequency affects speech emotion perception: Results from congenital amusia

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2015
Congenital amusics, or tone-deaf individuals, show difficulty in perceiving and producing small pitch differences. While amusia has marked effects on music perception, its impact on speech perception is less clear.

Pitch Perception With the Temporal Limits Encoder for Cochlear Implants

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2022
The temporal-limits-encoder (TLE) strategy has been proposed to enhance the representation of temporal fine structure (TFS) in cochlear implants (CIs), which is vital for many aspects of sound perception but is typically discarded by most modern CI ...

Native Experience with a Tone Language Enhances Pitch Discrimination and the Timing of Neural Responses to Pitch Change [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Pitch discrimination of patterned electric stimulation [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2005
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 ...

A Neurophysiological Study of Musical Pitch Identification in Mandarin-Speaking Cochlear Implant Users

open access: yesNeural Plasticity, 2020
Music perception in cochlear implant (CI) users is far from satisfactory, not only because of the technological limitations of current CI devices but also due to the neurophysiological alterations that generally accompany deafness.

Benefits of Harmonicity for Hearing in Noise Are Limited to Detection and Pitch-Related Discrimination Tasks

open access: yesBiology, 2023
Harmonic complex tones are easier to detect in noise than inharmonic complex tones, providing a potential perceptual advantage in complex auditory environments.

Haptics in music: the effects of vibrotactile stimulus in low frequency auditory difference detection tasks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present an experiment that investigated the effect of vibrotactile stimulation in auditory pitch discrimination tasks. Extra-auditory information was expected to have some influence upon the frequency discrimination of auditory Just Noticeable ...

An examination of auditory processing and affective prosody in relatives of patients with auditory hallucinations

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2013
Research on auditory verbal hallucinations (AVHs) indicates that AVH schizophrenia patients show greater abnormalities on tasks requiring recognition of affective prosody (AP) than non-AVH patients.
