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

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 ...
