Clinical Assessment of Pitch Perception [PDF]

Otology & Neurotology, 2011
The perception of pitch has recently gained attention. At present, clinical audiologic tests to assess this are hardly available. This article reports on the development of a clinical test using harmonic intonation (HI) and disharmonic intonation (DI).Prospective collection of normative data and pilot study in hearing-impaired subjects.Tertiary ...

Pitch Perception [PDF]

The Journal of Neuroscience, 2012
Pitch is one of the primary auditory sensations and plays a defining role in music, speech, and auditory scene analysis. Although the main physical correlate of pitch is acoustic periodicity, or repetition rate, there are many interactions that complicate the relationship between the physical stimulus and the perception of pitch.

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

Neural 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.

The mechanism of speech processing in congenital amusia: Evidence from Mandarin speakers [PDF]

, 2012
Congenital amusia is a neuro-developmental disorder of pitch perception that causes severe problems with music processing but only subtle difficulties in speech processing.

Impaired pitch identification as a potential marker for depression

BMC Psychiatry, 2012
Background Impaired auditory performance has been considered as marker for depression. The present study tested whether pitch perception is affected in depression and whether the impairment is task-specific or reflects global dysfunction.

Voice pitch preferences of adolescents: Do changes across time indicate a shift towards potentially adaptive adult-like preferences? [PDF]

, 2013
An evolutionary approach to attractiveness judgments emphasises that many human trait preferences exist in order to assist adaptive mate choice. Here we test an adaptive development hypothesis, whereby voice pitch preferences indicating potential mate ...

Pupillary response to dynamic pitch alteration during speech perception in noise [PDF]

JASA Express Letters, 2021
Dynamic pitch, also known as intonation, conveys both semantic and pragmatic meaning in speech communication. While alteration of this cue is detrimental to speech intelligibility in noise, the mechanism involved is poorly understood.
