Pitch Perception in the First Year of Life, a Comparison of Lexical Tones and Musical Pitch

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2017
Pitch variation is pervasive in speech, regardless of the language to which infants are exposed. Lexical tone is influenced by general sensitivity to pitch.

Noise edge pitch and models of pitch perception. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Acoust Soc Am, 2019
Monaural noise edge pitch (NEP) is evoked by a broadband noise with a sharp falling edge in the power spectrum. The pitch is heard near the spectral edge frequency but shifted slightly into the frequency region of the noise. Thus, the pitch of a lowpass (LP) noise is matched by a pure tone typically 2%–5% below the edge, whereas the pitch of highpass ...

Animal Pitch Perception: Melodies and Harmonies. [PDF]

open access: yesComp Cogn Behav Rev, 2017
Pitch is a percept of sound that is based in part on fundamental frequency. Although pitch can be defined in a way that is clearly separable from other aspects of musical sounds, such as timbre, the perception of pitch is not a simple topic. Despite this, studying pitch separately from other aspects of sound has led to some interesting conclusions ...

Pitch as a Shared Code for Music and Speech: Behavioral and Neural Evidence From Stroke Patients. [PDF]

open access: yesBrain Behav
Introduction Accurate pitch processing, including the ability to discriminate small differences in pitch, is essential for interpreting the melodic structure of both music and speech. However, the extent to which pitch discrimination is a shared auditory‐

Pitch and Rhythm Perception and Verbal Short-Term Memory in Acute Traumatic Brain Injury

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2021
Music perception deficits are common following acquired brain injury due to stroke, epilepsy surgeries, and aneurysmal clipping. Few studies have examined these deficits following traumatic brain injury (TBI), resulting in an under-diagnosis in this ...

Perception of Intonation on Neutral Tone in Mandarin

open access: yesFrontiers in Communication, 2022
In Mandarin, lexical tone has been found to interact with intonational tone to influence intonation perception, with the falling T4 facilitating the perception of the statement/question contrast the most, and the rising T2 the least. However, in addition

Categorical Perception of Pitch: Influence of Language Tone, Linguistic Meaning, and Pitch Contour

open access: yesJournal of Indian Speech Language & Hearing Association, 2017
Introduction Pitch is important for perception of speech. It is an imperative acoustic cue for differentiating gender, age, emotion and culture, etc. In certain languages, pitch also changes the linguistic meaning of the word.

Combination of absolute pitch and tone language experience enhances lexical tone perception

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Absolute pitch (AP), a unique ability to name or produce pitch without any reference, is known to be influenced by genetic and cultural factors. AP and tone language experience are both known to promote lexical tone perception.

Pitch Perception [PDF]

open access: yesAttention, Perception & Psychophysics, 2008
This article is a review of the psychophysical study of pitch perception. The history of the study of pitch has seen a continual competition between spectral and temporal theories of pitch perception. The pitch of complex stimuli is likely based on the temporal regularities in a sound's waveform, with the strongest pitches occurring for stimuli with ...
